Effect of fatty acid on the phenotypes of sbp-1 RNAi worm. a The synchronized L1 worms were bred on the RNAi plate (control (L4440), sbp-1) containing 1 mM fatty acids (ste: stearic acid, ole: oleic acid, lino: linoleic acid) for 4 days, and the fat accumulation was observed under a microscope. Bar = 500 μm. b The synchronized worms were bred on the RNAi plate (control (L4440), sbp-1) containing 1 mM fatty acids (ste: stearic acid, ole: oleic acid, lino: linoleic acid) for 3 days, and the number of laid egg per day was counted. N = 9, error bar indicates standard error
