	Genes with expression level regulated by genotype (N2 vs CB4856) and age at old adults stage (214 hours at 24 centigrade).	For model 2, authors used 100 permutations to estimate the FDR threshold.

8 Expression Patterns

• Primary Identifier: Expr1031519
• Pattern: Tiling arrays expression graphs

• Primary Identifier: Expr15121

• Primary Identifier: Expr1042
• Remark: In this paper authors refer to EMS as a gut cell, though it generates more than just gut.
• Pattern: MES-1 is detected as a thin crescent, initially in four-cell embryos between P2 and EMS and then in eight- to 12-cell embryos between P3 and E. MES-1 persists through the formation of P4 at the 24-cell stage. After P4 is generated, MES-1 begins to fade and is usually not detectable beyond the 30-40-cell stage. The crescent shape of MES-1 staining outlined a portion of the contact area between the germline and the gut cell; the tips of the crescent point dorsally, towards the interior of the embryo. From late prophase through anaphase, the more ventral centrosome was closely juxtaposed to the MES-1 crescent, with the two appearing to almost touch. By telophase, MES-1 and the centrosome had separated. MES-1 staining is localized in the germline cell starting with P2 (by P2 cell dissociation assay). Co-staining of MES-1 and actin shows the cytoplasmic domain of MES-1 to be on the P-cell side of the zone of germline-gut contact.
• Subcellular Localization: MES-1 staining was present adjacent to and sometimes overlapped with the cell cortex (marked by actin staining).

• 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.
