    • 1982, Current Topics in Developmental Biology, page 25:
      The numerous fluorescent dots visible in this photograph represent nuclei of diverse embryonic cells, but the nuclei belonging to the n bandlet can be distinguished because they lie within fluorescent (i.e., RDP-labeled) N teloblast progeny.
