WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr15693

• Pattern: In mid-L2 larvae, SRA-9::GFP was expressed in the AC and other uterine cells but not in the VPCs or the VNC. From the early L3 stage on, SRA-9::GFP expression was also observed in the VPCs, whereas AC expression faded until it was absent in mid-L3 (Pn.px stage) larvae.
• Primary Identifier: Expr15693
