PatternPUF-8::GFP was expressed in various tissues including the pharyngeal muscles, the hypodermis, the ventral cord motor neurons and the vulval cells. Before vulval induction in L2 larvae, PUF-8::GFP was expressed in all six vulval precursor cells at equal levels. After vulval induction in early L3 larvae, PUF-8::GFP was upregulated in the descendants of the tertiary distal VPCs (P3.p, P4.p and P8.p), while expression faded in the primary and secondary descendants of the proximal VPCs (P5.p, P6.p and P7.p). In addition, PUF-8::GFP expression was detected in the VulC sublineage of the secondary cells at the Pn.pxxx stage.
