Fig. 3. Developmental morphology of wild-type and ${Delta}$ forC mutant cells. (A) Morphology of fruiting bodies of wild-type (left) and ${Delta}$ forC cells (right) on lawns of Klebisiella aerogenes. ${Delta}$ forC cells made aberrant fruiting bodies. (B) Time lapse recording of wild-type (upper row) and ${Delta}$ forC (lower row) development on MES plates. The times (hours) after the onset of starvation are indicated above the pictures. (C) Slug formation by wild-type (left) and ${Delta}$ forC (right) cells. When wild-type and ${Delta}$ forC cells were starved on unbuffered agar plates, wild-type cells formed slugs, while ${Delta}$ forC cells remained as tipped mounds. (D) Complementation of the ${Delta}$ forC phenotype by supplying a plasmid that expresses ForC or GFP-ForC. ${Delta}$ forC cells carrying each plasmid indicated above the pictures were allowed to develop on MES agar plates.
