Figure 6. The male AMso cells are fully differentiated glia before and after the division that generates the MCM neuron.

Figure 6

Lateral views of animals oriented anterior to the left and dorsal to the top.

a, AMso glial cell (green, grl-2prom:gfp) and amphid sensory neuron dendrites (red, pdf-1prom:rfp) in an L3 hermaphrodite and L3 and L4 males.

b, Diagram of the AMso glial cell and the distal end of its projection to the nose, where it ensheaths the cilia of sensory dendrites.

c, Expression in AMso and perdurance in MCM of reporter transgenes for glial markers in L3, L4 and adult males. ptr-10 (Patch related receptor); itr-1 (IP3 receptor); grl-2 (hedgehog-like/Ground related).
