(A) As depicted in transmission electron micrographs, the sarcomere organisation detected in siblings was compromised in single cct3sa1761 homozygotes as well as cct3sa1761;mob4geh compound homozygotes. Electron-dense aggregates (arrowhead) as found in cct3sa1761 homozygotes were absent in cct3sa1761;mob4geh compound homozygotes (n = 3 per genotype). Scale bar sizes are 2 μm. (B) After rescaling to siblings (100 ± 1%), the birefringence of cct3sa1761;mob4geh compound homozygotes (31.4 ± 0.6%) was significantly ameliorated compared to single cct3sa1761 homozygotes (22.7 ± 0.3%). Crosses represent averaged birefringence of clutches with a minimum of 4 larvae per genotype (n = 5 clutches). Data are presented as mean ± SEM; *** P < 0.001 by one-way ANOVA with post hoc Tukey’s test.
