Mutations in evl-14 and scc-3 disrupted the development ofthe vulva and gonad

evl-14/pds-5 is expressed in embryo and postembryonic dividing cells
Discussion
Pvl Ste mutants primarily represent genes involved in cell divisionand cell cycle regulation
EVL-14/PDS-5 and SCC-3 function in both mitosis and meiosis
SCC-3 is essential for sister chromatid cohesion
EVL-14/PDS-5 is important for maintaining sister chromatid cohesionin late prophase
