Non-Unc stable transgenic lines were maintained, and the expression of GFP and mCherry were observed under a Zeiss Axiovision II microscope. Three days later, the number of worms that were L2 or older was recorded as number of survived worms (Ns), and the survival rate was calculated as Ns/Np, which is an estimation of survived worms in the whole population. MT12993 mir-71(n4115) worms were outcrossed with N2 for four generations before any test except the initial screen. A recent study showed that the expression of miR-71 was significantly increased relative to other miRNAs in starved L1 worms (15). However, miR-71 does not appear to regulate all postembryonic development during L1 diapause recovery. Unlike classical heterochronic miRNAs such as lin-4 and let-7, the role of miR-71 in vulval cell division is essential in animals recovering from starvation-induced L1 diapause, but not in animals hatched on plates with food.

• In worms that recovered from 4 d of L1 starvation, we also found that a significant portion of the mir-71(lf) mutants displayed egg-laying defects and overproliferating or precociously reflexed gonads.

• We identified a conserved “pause and play” mechanism of cell cycle during environmental stress and recovery.
• Relapse can be a challenging aspect of recovery.
• We found that ain-1 but not ain-2 mutants displayed a significant reduction in L1 starvation survival rate compared with that of wild type (Fig. 1 A and D).
