a, b Representative expression of GLR-1::GFP protein in the VNC in (a) nuls25[glr-1::GFP] and (b) nuIs25[glr-1::GFP];ncam-1(lf) transgenic worms. Images were always captured from the vulva all the way to the tail neuron. c, d Representative expression of GLR-1::GFP protein in the head ganglia in (c) nuls25 and (d) nuls25, ncam-1(lf) transgenic worms. e, f Scatter plots displaying fluorescent intensity values e and number of punctae f per worm with the line in the middle representing the mean and the whiskers representing ± SD. A two-tailed unpaired Mann–Whitney U test revealed no significant differences between nuls25 and nuIs25; ncam-1(lf) lines.
