“…The number of DAPI bodies counted for H3T3ph is 151 for the wild type and 111 for syp-1(12A) mutants. Quantifications of the length of SUN-1 Ser8ph staining as well as the TZ (defined by clustered nuclei without resolvable chromatids), and of RAD-51 foci were performed, as described in (Sato-Carlton et al, 2014). For quantification of RAD-51 foci per nucleus, the nuclei on the coverslip-proximal side of four gonads were scored for each genotype: the numbers of nuclei scored for zone 1-7 are as follows: for wt, 142, 163, 173, 146, 127, 111, 92; for syp-1(10A), 210, 241, 172, 129, 142, 104, 104; for syp-1(12A), 154, 144, 86, 75, 83, 79, 74.…”
