Is alleles indicate integrated transgenes. Transgenes shown in brackets. Transgenes were driven by the apl-1 promoter unless otherwise noted; the encoded protein is indicated; DAF-16::GFP is driven by the daf-16 promoter. apl-1(yn32) is a missense mutation that corresponds to a null allele. N = number of animals observed. T = number of independent times or trials experiment was performed. SUR-5::GFP was used as a co-injection marker for ynIs71 and ynIs86, Pmyo-2::GFP for ynIs106 and ynIs107, and rol-6(su1006) for ynIs79 and ynIs100. For statistical analysis: P-values were determined by one-way ANOVAs with Tukey post-test (95% confidence intervals) for survival rate and are only indicated if P < 0.001 against wild type (*) or apl-1(yn5) (**) at the given temperature. STE, standard error.
