Diagram of distal C. elegans germline and experimental workflow. a The syncytial distal progenitor zone (highlighted in red based on WAPL-1 antibody staining) contains mitotically cycling stem and progenitor cells and cells in meiotic S-phase. The distal tip cell (DTC) provides GLP-1 signal (Notch ligand) to maintain the stem cell fate of these cells. As cells migrate away from the DTC, they exit the progenitor zone and enter meiotic prophase. b Workflow used to assay the relationship between PCN-1 accumulation and S-phase (EdU labeling) in the C. elegans germline
