Fig. 2. kal-1/anosmin-1, sax-7/L1CAM, egl-15/FGFR, and EGL-17/FGF act in a genetic pathway.

Fig. 2

A Schematic with the position and morphology of the hermaphrodite specific neuron (HSN) indicated. Only the left HSN is shown for simplicity. An arrowhead indicates the characteristic branch formed near the vulva and a box the approximate extent of the images shown in (B) and (C).

B – C Lateral views with schematics (B’,C’) of adult animals showing the hermaphrodite-specific serotonergic neuron HSN. HSN neurons were visualized with zdIs13 (Is[Ptph-1::GFP]). Anterior is to the left, asterisks indicate the location of the vulva and a scale bar 10 µm.

D – F Quantification of HSNs with branches in the genotypes indicated. Statistical significance is shown as: **: P<0.005, ***: P<0.0005, ns: not significant. There is no statistically significant difference in any pairwise comparison between single and multiple mutants in D. In F, the data for control and egl-15(n484) is identical to D and E and shown for comparison only. See Dataset S1 for full primary data.
