Expression Pattern :

Pattern  This construct was expressed in several tissues: AC, spermatheca and K lineage. In all cases expression could be detected at the appropriate time. In addition, unexpected vulval expression was found from the early to mid fourth larval (L4) stage in the vulF cells, which are the dorsal-most 1 vulval progeny. The expression appeared to be 1-vulva-specific because the vulval lin-3::lacZ expression was absent in animals bearing a strong lin-12(gf) mutation, which confers a multivulva phenotype consisting of only 2 lineages.
