cul-5 mutant follicles do not contain 2ⁿ germ line cells.

The graph plots the number of germ cells (Y-axis) in 20 randomly chosen aberrant follicles (X-axis). The green and red lines indicate the normal 16 (green) germ cells per follicles, or multiples of 16 (red). For each follicle, we counted the number of germ line cells three times (error bars denote ±SD). The number at the bottom of the column indicates the number of Orb-positive cells (oocytes) found in that particular follicle.
