Altered gonad migration in DGLA supplemented nematodes. (A) Typical GFP expression in gonadal sheath cells in OH172 raised on unsupplemented plates, the gonads show the predicted U-shaped bend. (B) Abnormal gonad migration in OH172 raised on 0.15 mM DGLA. The anterior gonad has no bend, while the posterior gonad displays improper gonadal migration (Z-shaped bend). The table reports the percentage of the supplemented population (n = 49) showing normal gonad shape, no bend, or Z shaped migration (Mig) in the anterior and the posterior gonads.
