Expression Pattern :

Pattern  Expression is mainly seen in the developing gonad in the L4 stage larva. In the adult expression appears to be restricted to the spermathecae. This pattern was seen in 2 lines from a total of eight. There is also some faint expression occasionally in 2 nerves in the nerve ring in three lines. Expression is also seen in the posterior of the intestine in some lines and one line gave random seam cell expression in larval and adult animals. Primary Identifier  Expr7614

an accordion-like tube that contains sperm and is the site of oocyte fertilization. spermatheca   WBbt:0005319
A chain of very large cuboidal cells forming a wide central lumen in which food arrives from the posterior pharynx, is digested, and from which waste products proceed to the rectum. Intestinal rings form in groups of two and four cells surrounding the common lumen; thus the epithelium is only one cell deep at any point, with neighboring cells firmly secured to their neighbors by apical adherens junctions. These cells have very large nuclei and many large vacuoles, yolk granules, and other inclusions; the latter increase in number and electron density as the animal ages. intestine gut WBbt:0005772
a group of hypodermal cells that lie along the apical midline of the hypodermis, at the extreme left and right sides between nose and tail seam cell lateral hypodermis WBbt:0005753
