Figure 2.

Glp-1- and Lin-12-like phenotypes are observed in the germ line and somatic gonads of hop-1; sel-12 animals. Differential interference contrast photomicrographs of wild-type (A and C) or hop-1; sel-12 hermaphrodites from hop-1/+; sel-12 parent animals (B and D). (A) A gonad arm of a young adult hermaphrodite containing undifferentiated germ cells (gc) near the distal tip cell (dtc) and oocytes (ooc) and sperm (sp) proximally. (B) A Glp-1-like gonad arm (18) containing sperm (sp) distally and proximally but neither oocytes nor undifferentiated germ cells. This field of view also shows a protruding vulva (pvul). (C) An L4 stage hermaphrodite containing a single anchor cell (AC). (D) An L4 stage hermaphrodite containing two ACs. (Bars = 10 μm.)
