Stage-specific division patterns determine the duration of the larval stages. A Diagram of V1–V4,V6 seam cell divisions in the wild-type strain and lin-14 and lin-28 lack-of-function mutants. B Duration of each stage of larval development. The stages are plotted as first, second, third or fourth regardless of the cell fates expressed in the stage, which are indicated by the colour of the dots, as shown in A. The numbers inside the plots show the daf-2 to wild-type ratio of the duration of each stage. The results from statistical testing refer to the differences between the ratios of each different RNAi compared to the PL4440 control. The duration of all daf-2 stages is significantly different from that of the wild-type (not shown), as measured by t-test
