Ciliated sensory neurons in C. elegans. a Diagram (not to scale) of a C. elegans hermaphrodite showing a subset of the amphid (head) and phasmid (tail) ciliated sensory neurons (green and red cells, respectively). The intestine and pharynx (gray) are also shown. b A confocal image of the amphid AWA sensory neuron pair in an adult hermaphrodite. Anterior is to the left. Note the extensively branched cilia of this neuron type. Image courtesy: Ashish K. Maurya. c A confocal image showing two cilia (yellow arrows) present at the dendritic ending of an amphid AWB neuron in the adult hermaphrodite. The GFP-tagged DYF-19/FBF1 transition fiber protein (white arrows) is localized to the base of the cilia. Anterior is at left. Scale bars in b and c 10 and 1 μm, respectively
