Figure 2

egl-4 acts in sensory neurons to promote quiescence. A) Scatterplot of quiescent bouts for wild type (same as Figure 1A), egl-4(n479) and egl-4 rescue strains. The strains starting with NQ are transgenic strains expressing egl- 4 cDNA under odr-3 (NQ2, NQ5 and NQ7), odr-1(NQ11 and NQ13) and tax-4 (NQ20, NQ21 and NQ22) promoters. egl-4(n479) (n = 12), NQ2 (n = 13), NQ5 (n = 17), NQ7 (n = 12), NQ11 (n = 16), NQ13 (n = 16), NQ20 (n = 18), NQ21(n = 10) and NQ22 (n = 24). *** significantly different from wild type. ¶¶¶ significantly different from egl- 4(n479) Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn's multiple comparison. B) Distribution of quiescent bouts for wild type (as in Figure 1A), egl-4(ks60) (same as Figure 1A), osm-6(p811) (n = 33), egl-4(ks60);osm-6(p811) (n = 47), osm- 3(p802)(n = 31) and egl-4(ks60);osm-3(p802)(n = 30), nmr-1(ak4) (same as Figure 1A) and nmr-1(ak4);osm-6(p811) (n = 34), *** and ### p < 0.0001 by Mann-Whitney U test, significantly different from wild type and egl-4(ks60) respectively.
