	Maternal class (M): genes that are called present in at least one of the three PC6 replicates.	A modified Welch F statistic was used for ANOVA. For each gene, regressed error estimates were substituted for observed error estimates. The substitution is justified by the lack of consistency among the most and least variable genes at each time point. Regressed error estimates were abundance-dependent pooled error estimates that represented a median error estimate from a window of genes of similar abundance to the gene of interest. A randomization test was used to compute the probability Pg of the observed F statistic for gene g under the null hypothesis that developmental time had no effect on expression. P-values were not corrected for multiple testing.	[cgc5767]:expression_class_M

	Genes that showed expression levels higher than the corresponding reference sample (L2 all cell 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.

14 Expression Patterns

• Primary Identifier: Expr4873
• Remark: Picture: Figure 4A, B, C.
• Pattern: NFYA-1 was localized to the nucleus and was ubiquitously expressed in all nuclei at all developmental stages. In larvae and adult animals, strong expression of nfya-1 was observed in the head ganglia neurons and also in the developing hermaphrodite vulva and mail tail, while its expression was lower in most somatic cells.
• Subcellular Localization: NFYA-1 was localized to the nucleus.

• Primary Identifier: Expr8634
• Remark: Picture: Fig 2, 3, 4. The controls of the in situ hybridiza tion reactions showed negative results.
• Pattern: A different expression pattern of CeNF-Y genes was observed in infertile worms (12 days after L1 stage). The positivity in the gonads disappeared, while CeNF-YB and CeNF-YC expression decreased in the pharingeal secretory cells and the neurons. Apart from the gonads and developing embryos, the CeNF-Y mRNAs were detected in other tissue from C. elegans. In 6-day-old worms, CeNF-YB and CeNF-YC, but not CeNF-YA1 nor CeNF-YA2, were expressed in the cytoplasm of the secretory cells located in the pharyngeal terminal bulb wall, in the neuron cell bodies of the small ganglia surrounding the pharynx and in the neurons running anteriorly to the sensory organs in the animal's head. NF-YC was also found in the excretory cell. Subunits were not expressed in any other organs, such as the intestine, the hypodermis and body wall muscle surrounding the pseudocoelomic space. The in situ hybridization procedure revealed the expression of CeNF-Y gene subunits in adult, fertile, hermaphrodite (6 days after L1 stage) C. elegans. High mRNA expression of all the subunits was evident in various parts of the gonads with differing degrees of intensity. In particular, positivity increased in oocytes from the distal to the proximal arm of the gonad in function of the stage of maturation. The cytoplasm of the syncytial ovaries and immature oocytes at the beginning of the proximal arm of the gonad were weakly positive, while oocytes, which increased in size along the oviduct toward the spermatheca, were strongly positive. Fertilized oocytes present in the uterus were strongly positive. In the late embryo stage, the expression of CeNF-Y mRNAs did not appear to be uniformly distributed, and presented an asymmetrical organization with anterior-posterior polarity.
• Subcellular Localization: cytoplasm

• Primary Identifier: Expr7660
• Remark: Clone: pUL#JRH/AE12
• Pattern: Expression is seen in the ventral and dorsal nerve cords plus a cell body in the nerve ring, from late embryo to adult.

• Primary Identifier: Chronogram54
• Remark: Original chronogram file: chronogram.1046.xml
• Reporter Gene: [T08D10.1:gfp] transcriptional fusion.

• Primary Identifier: Expr16461
• Pattern: Consistent with previous reports, nfya-1 was expressed in many neurons in the head of worms. We found that nfya-1 was co-expressed with flp-3 in all IL1s at either the adult or larval developmental stage animals, indicating that nfya-1 is indeed expressed in IL1s throughout development. Moreover, GFP-tagged NFYA-1 driven under the control of the nfya-1 promoter was localized to the nucleus of all IL1 neurons, supporting its predicted role as a transcription factor.
