Figure Caption

Fig. S1 Comparison of the egg size of WT and MZspg^m793 embryos. Embryos were obtained by in vitro fertilization. (A, B) Unfertilized oocytes 2 min after activation in egg water and (D, E) fertilized embryos at 1000 cell stage. (A, D) WT and (B, E) MZspg^m793. The image area of the activated oocytes or the yolk cell area was traced and measured using ImageJ software (C, F). Oocytes and embryos at 1 k stage showing no significant difference in size when WT and MZspg^m793 embryos are compared. (C) oocytes: WT = 0.38 ± 0.02 mm²; (E) MZspg^m793 = 0.37 ± 0.02 mm². (F) Measurement of the yolk cell area at 1 k stage. WT = 0.30 ± 0.01 mm²; MZspg^m793 = 0.32 ± 0.01 mm². Scale bar in A: 1 mm.
