Fig. 2. Partial suppression of daf-2 dauer arrest by daf-9 expression in the hypodermis. (A) A daf-2(e1370) partial dauer animal carrying a dpy-7p::daf-9::GFP transgene. Although the vulva displayed L4 morphology (inset), gonadal migration was arrested and abundant refractile bodies, indicative of lipid accumulation, were apparent in the intestinal cells. The arrow indicates the position of the distal tip cell (DTC). (B) A daf-2(e1370) dauer animal showing arrested vulval development, gonadal migration and refractile bodies in the intestinal cells. All animals were raised at 25°C.
