Early cell lineage of M. incognita. Cell lineage pattern of the early cleavages of the M. incognita embryo starting from the zygote to the 48-cell stage. The tree was built from data of a single representative specimen, and confirmed by two other specimens. The left scale indicates the hours after the first division. The formation of the six founder cells (the somatic cells AB, MS, E, C, D and the germline precursor cell P4 are marked in the lineage with a circle. The black arrow at the top left represents the time needed by C. elegans to develop from a fertilised egg to a hatched L1 stage at similar temperature
