PatternBright fluorescence was detected in post-gastrulating embryos in regions corresponding to intestinal cells and the dorsal body wall muscle quadrant. Expression continued throughout all larval stages and into adulthood in most tissues except for the gonadal cells. By mid L4, GFP fluorescence was visible in intestinal and muscle cells, with concentrated regions within the pharyngeal and vulval muscles. There was an obvious change in the expression pattern of young adults as fluorescence decreased in the anterior head and posterior tail regions, but the intestine, pharynx and particularly the spermatheca continued to exhibit bright reporter expression. Fluorescence was equally observed in the excretory system within structures resembling the excretory gland cells, the intestinal-rectal valve and anus. Interestingly, no expression was observed in the male gonad.
