Strains of C. elegans were cultured and maintained using standard protocols (Brenner, 1974) unless indicated otherwise. The N2 Bristol strain was used as the wild type (WT) strain Genome-integrated arrays (qxIs) were acquired by γ-irradiation to achieve stable expression from arrays with low copy numbers. The following strains were used in this work: linkage group (LG) I, daf-16(mu86), hsf-1(sy441); LG II, eat-2(ad1116); LG III, daf-2(e1370ts), cup-5(bp510); LG IV, skn-1(zj15), isp-1(qm150), hlh-30(tm1978); LG V, cpl-1(qx304), hif-1(ia4). The reporter strains used in this study include qxIs257 (Pced-1NUC-1::CHERRY), qxIs468 (Pmyo-3LAAT-1::GFP), qxIs520 (Pvha-6LAAT-1::GFP), qxIs750 (PhsNUC-1::pHTomato), qxIs612 (PhsNUC-1::sfGFP::CHERRY), zuIs45 (Pnmy-2NMY-2::GFP).
