Validating the Predictions (IMAGE)
Caption
To validate whether the predictions of the algorithm were right the BIMSB researchers also stained fly embryos experimentally. DNA in all cell nuclei appears blue in this picture and reveals the morphology of the embryo. On the left the head is beginning to separate from the rest of the body, in the middle the embryo is invaginating (ventral view, not shown in vISH) -- these two features are characteristic of embryos at this stage. Marked in red is DsRed marker gene expression, which mirrors the prediction.
