PB201 Cre-unc(bd201). Male-female strain. Parental strain is C. remanei ssp. vulgaris. Males and females back poorly, forward movement unaffected. Males are able to mate. Autosomal. Based on phenotype alone (defective in backward movement), it might be orthologous to unc-4. See WBPaper00002633.
PB206 Caenorhabditis remanei. Male-female strain. From association with a terrestrial isopod, Trachelipus rathkii, that was collected from the Wright State University Biology Preserve, Dayton Ohio. Species ID confirmed by mating test with EM464.
PB212 Caenorhabditis remanei. Male-female strain. From association with a terrestrial isopod, Trachelipus rathkii, that was collected from the Wright State University Biology Preserve, Dayton Ohio. Species ID confirmed by mating test with EM464.
PB219 Caenorhabditis remanei. Male-female strain. From association with a terrestrial isopod, Trachelipus rathkii, that was collected from Cox Arboretum, Dayton Ohio. Species ID confirmed by mating test with EM464.
PB227 Caenorhabditis remanei. Male-female strain. From association with a terrestrial isopod, Trachelipus rathkii, that was collected from Taylorsville MetroPark, Dayton Ohio. Species ID confirmed by mating test with SB146.
PB228 Caenorhabditis remanei. Male-female strain. From association with a terrestrial isopod, Armadillidium vulgare, that was collected from Eastwood MetroPark, Dayton Ohio. Species ID confirmed by mating test with SB146.

PB4641 Caenorhabditis remanei. Male-female strain. Inbred derivative of EM464. Inbred one gravid female per generation for 20 generations. Fitness high. Recommended for sequencing. [In Aug. 2005 the CGC received the 20 generation inbred line. Previous to this the CGC had been sending out a 14 generation inbred line, also called PB4641.] Strain used for sequencing.
PX439 Caenorhabditis remanei wild isolate. Male-female strain. Low fecundity and fitness. PX439 is an inbred derivative of isofemale line PB259 originally collected from a forest in Ohio (USA) by Scott Baird (Wright State University). Reference: Fierst JL, et al.
