	Transcripts expressed in neuronal cells, by analyzingfluorescence-activated cell sorted (FACS) neurons.	DESeq. False discovry rate (FDR) < 0.1.	WBPaper00048988:neuron_expressed
	Genes that showed expression levels higher than the corresponding reference sample (embryonic 24hr reference).	A Mann-Whitney U test with an empirical background model and FDR correction for multiple testing was used to detect expressed transcripts (Benjamini and Hochberg 1995). Genes and TARs with an FDR <= 0.05 were reported as expressed above background. Authors detected differentially expressed transcripts using a method based on linear models. Genes and TARs were called differentially expressed if the FDR was <= 0.05 and the fold change (FC) >= 2.0. To more strictly correct for potential false-positives resulting from multiple sample comparisons, authors divided individual FDR estimates by the number of samplesor sample comparisons, respectively. This resulted in an adjusted FDR of 1.3 * 0.0001 for expression above background and of 7.4 * 0.0001 for differential expression. Authors called genes selectively enriched in a given tissue if they met the following requirements: (1) enriched expression in a given tissue (FDR <= 0.05 and FC >= 2.0), (2) fold change versus reference among the upper 40% of the positive FC range observed for this gene across all tissues, and (3) fold-change entropy among the lower 40% of the distribution observed for all genes.

8 Expression Patterns

• Primary Identifier: Expr1031139
• Pattern: Tiling arrays expression graphs

• Primary Identifier: Expr9608
• Pattern: The embryonic expression pattern of hlh-16 is largely bilaterally symmetric, with the notable exception of asymmetric expression in several distinct, otherwise bilaterally symmetric neuron pairs. Specifically, we detected the expression of hlh-16 reporters (hlh-16prom::mcherry and hlh-16trans::gfp) in two symmetric neuroblasts (ABplpapaaa and ABprpapaaa).These two neuroblasts generate through an asymmetric cell division one SMDD motoneuron and one AIY interneuron on each side of the animal. Following terminal division, the hlh-16 reporters are expressed in postmitotic SMDD(L/R) and AIY(L/R), and their expression decreases during larval development, becoming barely detectable in the adult. The hlh-16 reporters are expressed at a higher level in the left SMDD and AIY compared to the right SMDD and AIY. This L/R asymmetry is already visible in the SMDD/AIY mother cells. Asymmetric expression is also observed in their sister neuroblasts (the SIAD/SIBV mother cells) and, following terminal division, the SIAD and SIBV head motoneurons. Other bilateral neuron pairs display no asymmetric hlh-16 expression.

• Pattern: Inferred expression. EPIC dataset. http://epic.gs.washington.edu/ Large-scale cellular resolution compendium of gene expression dynamics throughout development. This reporter was inferred to be expressing in this cell or one of its embryonic progenitor cells as described below. To generate a compact description of which cells express a particular reporter irrespective of time, the authors defined a metric "peak expression" for each of the 671 terminal ("leaf") cells born during embryogenesis. For each of these cells, the peak expression is the maximal reporter intensity observed in that cell or any of its ancestors; this has the effect of transposing earlier expression forward in time to the terminal set of cells. This metric allows straightforward comparisons of genes' cellular and lineal expression overlap, even when the expression occurs with different timing and despite differences in the precise time point that curation ended in different movies, at the cost of ignoring the temporal dynamics of expression, a topic that requires separate treatment. For simplicity, the authors use the term "expressing cells" to mean the number of leaf cells (of 671) with peak expression greater than background (2000 intensity units) and at least 10% of the maximum expression in that embryo. Quantitative expression data for all cells are located here: ftp://caltech.wormbase.org/pub/wormbase/datasets-published/murray2012/

• Pattern: Single cell embryonic expression. Only cell types with an expression fraction of greater 0.2 of the maximum expressed fraction are labeled (Full data can be downloaded from http://caltech.wormbase.org/pub/wormbase/datasets-published/packer2019/). The colors represent the broad cell class to which the cell type has been assigned. The size of the point is proportional to the log2 of the numbers of cells in the dataset of that cell type.
