WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr726

• Pattern: Staining of nervous system including the ventral nerve cord and pharyngeal ganglia. Staining was also seen in retrovesicular ganglia in adults. Staining was not only in the ventral nerve cord but also in the nerve bundles connecting the ventral and dorsal cords.
• Primary Identifier: Expr726
• Remark: This information was extracted from published material (Archana Sharma-Oates, Andrew Mounsey and Ian A. Hope).

a large process bundle that runs along the vental mid-line extending from the ventral region of the nerve ring.	ventral nerve cord	ventral cord	WBbt:0005829
Ganglion that lies at the anterior limit of the ventral nerve cord, near the ventral ganglion and nerve ring in the head posterior to the excretory pore. It is open and continuous with the region containing the motoneurons of the ventral cord. In the early L1 this ganglion holds 12 neuron cell bodies plus one neuroblast (Sulston and Horvitz, 1977; White et al., 1986). In the adult animal, the ganglion holds 20 neuron cell bodies.	retrovesicular ganglion		WBbt:0005656
