DA1877 Comamonas sp. Comamonas sp. Bacteria. Comamonas sp., a bacterium on which C. elegans grows particularly well. Str-R. DA1877 is derived from a bacterium isolated from soil in the Dallas area by Boris Shtonda in 2002. That strain was called H39 in Avery, L, Shtonda, BB (2003), "Food transport in the C elegans pharynx", J Exp Biol 206: 2441-2457. It was identified as genus Comamonas by 16S rDNA sequencing, as described in the paper. L. Avery isolated a spontaneous streptomycin-resistant variant by selecting for growth in LB broth + 200 ug/ml streptomycin sulfate. This strain, when spread on NGMSR plates, gave rise to faster-growing papillae; one of these was streaked out to get DA1877. Biosafety Level: BSL-1.

DA768 bli-6(sc16) egl-19(ad695) unc-24(e138)/nDf41 IV. C. elegans Heterozygotes are Blistered and Eat (terminal bulb relaxation defective). Heterozygotes segregate BliEat, BliEatUnc and dead eggs. ad695 previously called eat-12.

DA810 egl-30(ad810) gpb-2(ad541)/gpb-2(ad541) I. C. elegans ad810 is homozygous lethal. ad810/+ is Egl and it suppresses gpb-2. gpb-2 phenotype is rather subtle: they are slightly starved, slightly longer than normal, and tend to be loopy in their movements (they make abnormally deep bends). Hets should be Egl and non-Eat. On most E. coli strains gpb-2 grows rather poorly, especially if the plates are older so that there is a thick and tough lawn. On such plates there will be a lot of gpb-2 larval arrest, and those that don't arrest will grow slowly. The hets should easily outgrow the gpb-2 homozygotes. [gpb-2 is also hypersensitive to the drug arecoline: they won't grow on 5 mM. The hets will grow even better than WT on 5 mM arecoline.] gpb-2(ad541) previously called eat-11(ad541).
DA819 eat-4(ad819) III. C. elegans Abnormal feeding.
DA820 eat-18(ad820) I. C. elegans Semidominant Eat. pka eat-18.
DA823 egl-30(ad805) I. C. elegans Suppressor of gpb-2 (a.k.a. eat-11) arecoline hypersensitivity. Unc. Egl.
DA837 E. coli. Escherichia coli Bacteria. E. coli. Str-R. Uracil auxotroph. DA837 is derived from OP50. DA837 is harder for worms to eat than most E. coli strains. Some mild Eat mutant worms are easier to distinguish from WT when grown on DA837 than when grown on other E. coli strains. Biosafety Level: BSL-1.

DA952 egl-19(n582ad952) IV. C. elegans n582 is Egl, Lon, slow & floppy. Suppressed by ad952, which is semidominant. Strain is slightly Dpy and the pharyngeal bulb occasionally shows delayed relaxation and repolarization.

HB101 E. coli [supE44 hsdS20(rB-mB-) recA13 ara-14 proA2 lacY1 galK2 rpsL20 xyl-5 mtl-1]. Escherichia coli Bacteria. This strain of E. coli is easier for worms to eat than other E. coli strains. [supE44 hsdS20(rB-mB-) recA13 ara-14 proA2 lacY1 galK2 rpsL20 xyl-5 mtl-1]. Contains a mutation (rpsL20) in a ribosomal subunit gene that confers streptomycin resistance. Biosafety Level: BSL-1.
JD217 gar-3(vu78) V. C. elegans
JK987 tra-2(q276)/mnC1 [dpy-10(e128) unc-52(e444)] II. C. elegans Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, DpyUnc and males. The males will mate. Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it from the CGC. This strain cannot be distributed to commercial organizations. This strain cannot be used for any commercial purpose or for work on human subjects.
