Strain	Genotype	Species	Description
OK245	pyr-1(cu8) unc-4(e120)/mnC1 [dpy-10(e128) unc-52(e444)] II.	C. elegans	Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, Dpy Steriles (mnC1 homozygotes), and Unc-4 animals which have a partially penetrant Mel phenotype.
OK257	peb-1(cu9)/dpy-3(e27) unc-2(e55) X.	C. elegans	Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, DpyUncs, and peb-1(cu9) homozygotes which arrest as larvae with a stuffed pharynx, abnormal hindgut and g1 gland cell morphology, and molting defects.
OK286	pyr-1(cu8) II.	C. elegans	Partially penetrant Mel.
OK29	cuIs1 V.	C. elegans	cuIs1 [ceh-22::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Rollers.
OK39	cuIs2 IV.	C. elegans	cuIs2 [myo-2c:: GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Rollers.
OK499	ceh-28(cu11) X.	C. elegans	Stuffed pharynx. Slow growth.
OK66	daf-4(m72) III; cuIs2/+ IV.	C. elegans	cuIs2 [myo-2c:: GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. daf-4(m72) is a temperature sensitive dauer constitutive mutant. Maintain at 15C. It was problematic to get cuIs2 homozygous in this background. Pick Rollers to maintain.
OK68	cuIs2 IV; daf-3(mgDf90) X.	C. elegans	Dauer defective. cuIs2 [myo-2c:: GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Rollers. [NOTE: this strain was originally described as carrying daf-3(mg90), which is an old name for daf-3(mgDf90).]
OK814	nfyb-1(cu13) II.	C. elegans	Superficially wild-type. Reference: Milton AC, et al. Dev Biol. 2013 Oct 1;382(1):38-47.
PD8292	ceh-22(cc8266) V/nT1 [unc-?(n754) let-?] (IV;V).	C. elegans	Heterozygotes are Unc and segregate Uncs, non-Uncs and dead eggs.
