We first examined
eya-1 expression in pharyngeal neurons using a genomic fragment that contains the entire, gfp-tagged
eya-1 locus (Furuya et al., 2005). We observed expression in all pharyngeal neurons throughout all larval and adult stages, a phenocopy of the
ceh-34 expression pattern, that is also corroborated by our recent scRNA analysis (Taylor et al., 2021).
