This young adult mutant tail has been reconstructed in the phasmid area, behind the rectum.  Every other available thin section was photographed at 20,000X for prints #1-87. Phasmid-related cells were reconstructed using a brown color code. 

 

See Chalfie, Horvitz and Sulston (1981) Cell 24: 59-69. “Mutations that lead to reiterations in the cell lineages of C. elegans”

 

This animal shows that daughters of the T cell precursor give rise to reiterated phasmid socket cell daughters. All labeled cells are presumed to be T daughters, except hyp8.
