  1. Mosaic animals from strain PS3047 (n = 37) were used to determine the occurrence of the Ncl phenotype and GFP-LacI•lacO. Scored by cell from anterior to posterior of the worm: m2, m3L, m3VL, m4, m3R, m3VR, m3DL, m3DR, hyp7(dorsal, head), hyp7(ventral head), P/I, P3.p, P4.p, P5.p, P6.p, P7.p, P8.p, B, F, U, hyp7(tail), hyp7(anus). +: GFP-LacI bound to the lacO, fluorescent spot; -: diffuse fluorescence, W: normal nucleolus (non-Ncl) size, N: enlarged nucleolus (Ncl) and ?: undetermined.
