Strain Genotype Description
KR444 dpy-5(e61) dnj-21(h124) unc-13(e450) I; sDp2 (I;f). Animals with the Dup are Unc. Animals which have lost the Dup are DpyUnc and arrest in early to mid-larval development.
VC1085 dnj-21(ok1577) I/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). T19B4.4. Homozygous lethal deletion chromosome balanced by bli-4- and GFP-marked translocation. Heterozygotes are WT with pharyngeal GFP signal, and segregate WT GFP, arrested hT2 aneuploids, and non-GFP ok1577 homozygotes (early larval arrest). Homozygous hT2[bli-4 let-? qIs48] inviable. Note: qIs48 has been observed to recombine off hT2, typically leaving behind a functional homozygous viable hT2 with Bli-4 phenotype. Pick WT GFP and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain.
