For each genotype, abdominal hemisegments were counted for the number of NB7-3 cells that had at least two Ddc-expressing cells and at least one corazonin cell. The results are presented as a percentage of total number of hemisegments counted. Stage 17 embryos were analyzed in the rescue of the numb1 phenotype. Third instar larvae were analyzed in the rescue of the UAS-NotchACT phenotype. The UAS-NotchACT/+:eg-gal4/UASp35 genotype produces two distinct CNS phenotypes, those that show rescue and those that look like UAS-NotchACT phenotype. Only the fraction of CNS that showed evidence of rescue were counted.
