Strain Information

Name BCN9071   View On Wormbase
Species C. elegans
Genotypevit-2(crg9070[vit-2::gfp]) X.
DescriptionGFP knocked into C terminal of vit-2 gene by CRISPR/Cas9 using self-excising drug selection cassette method of Dickinson et al. (2015, Genetics). Strain is derived from BCN9070, which was outcrossed to remove a linked background mutation on LG X causing transgenic males to mate poorly. Reference: Perez MF, et al.
