ynIs59 [flp-18p::GFP].

hpIs814 [flp-18p::LoxP::eBFP::Stop::LoxP::TeTx::wCherry + twk-40p(short)::Cre]. Red fluorescence in AVA. Slow forward and backward movement, with reduced reversals.

hpIs721 [rig-3p::FRT::Stop::FRT::snb-1::GFP + nmr-1p::FLP::FLP + myo-2p::RFP]. hpIs811 [flp-18p::LoxP::eBFP::Stop::LoxP::TeTx::Cherry + twk-40p(short)::Cre]. Transgenic animals have pharyngeal RFP signal; GFP puncta are visible in AVA soma but not along the VNC; RFP signals along AVA neurite.

hpIs824 [flp-18p::LoxP::eBFP::Stop::LoxP::gtACR2::wCherry + twk-40p(short)::Cre]. Red fluorescence in AVA soma and neurites of the VNC. Activation of gtACR2 inhibits both forward and backward movement.

hpIs819 [twk-40p(short)::GCaMP::T2A::NLS::mNeptune + lin-15(+)]. hpIs810 [flp-18p::LoxP::eBFP::Stop::LoxP::TeTx::wCherry + twk-40p(short)::Cre]. Transgenic animals exhibit strong RFP signals in AVA soma and neurites; cytoplasmic GFP and RFP in AVA, AVE, AVB and some neurons in RVG and tail (DVA).

hpIs814 [flp-18p::LoxP::eBFP::Stop::LoxP::TeTx::wCherry + twk-40p(short)::Cre]. Red fluorescence in AVA. twk-40(hp834) is a loss-of-function allele. twk-40(hp834) itself is highly loopy and a weak backward coiler. The presence of hpIs814 in the background reduces body bending and speed compared to twk-40(hp834) alone.

hpIs814 [flp-18p::LoxP::eBFP::Stop::LoxP::TeTx::wCherry + twk-40p(short)::Cre]. hpEx4363 [npr-4p::ins-22::pHluorin + myo-2p::wCherry]. Pick wCherry+ (pharynx) animals to maintain. Red fluorescence in AVA.

hpEx4362 [flp-18p::cha-1(sense) + twk-40p::cha-1(antisense) + ttx-3p::GFP]. Pick animals with GFP expression in AIY to maintain. Transgenic animals exhibit reduced forward speed and body bending; this phenotype is not fully penetrate.

hpIs758 [rig-3p::LoxP::eBFP::LoxP::Chrimson::wCherry + twk-40p(short)::Cre + myo-2p::wCherry]. hpIs814 [flp-18p::LoxP::eBFP::Stop::LoxP::TeTx::wCherry + twk-40p(short)::Cre]. RFP positive in AVA soma and neurite along the VNC. Weak pharyngeal RFP. Flat and slow movement without ATR or LED stimulation. Chrimson activation induces loopy reversal but not loopy forward after 5min.
