*GFP expression in neurons (check mark), and in A-class motor neurons (DA, VA, SAB, I5). GFP expression was typically determined in L2 larvae. Full expression patterns can be found in Additional data file 17. Expression patterns for some of these GFP reporters have been previously reported: T27A1.6, F39G3.8, T19C4.5, CC4.2, C18H9.7, F36A2.4, F29G6.2, T23D8.2, T05C12.2, F33D4.3, C11D2.6, E03D2.2, F55C12.4, F43C9.4, K02E10.8, ZC21.2, Y47D3B.2a, F09C3.2 [5]; F33D4.3 [43]; CC4.2, E03D2.2 [96]; F36A2.4, [121]; F43C9.4, [122]. Y47D3B.2a, [123].
