PatternGFP::MLS-2 expression became detectable around the 50-cell stage of embryogenesis and was restricted to specific, reproducible sublineages of the AB blastomere, most of which gave rise to neuronal and/or glial descendants. GFP::MLS-2 was also expressed in the duct and pore lineages, but was never observed in the canal cell. In 3/3 movies, we saw that expression of GFP::MLS-2 initiated in the grandparents of the duct and pore cell. GFP::MLS- 2 expression persisted in the duct and pore cells through the ventral enclosure and 1.5-fold stages of embryonic development, during which time fates are specified via EGF-Ras- ERK signaling and the duct and pore cells stack and form tubes (Abdus-Saboor et al., 2011). By the first larval stage of development, when the duct and pore cells have achieved their mature morphologies, GFP::MLS-2 was no longer detected in the duct and pore cells.
