Species C. elegans
Genotypecid-1&pup-2(om129)/qC1 [dpy-19(e1259) glp-1(q339)] nIs189 III.
DescriptionPick wild-type GFP+ to maintain. Heterozygotes are wild-type GFP+ (pharynx), and segregate wild-type GFP+ heterozygotes, Dpy Sterile GFP+, and non-GFP om129 homozygotes (reduced fertility, maternal effect embryonic lethality, and high incidence of male offspring). om129 homozygote defects become more severe over successive generations and are more severe at 25C. om129 is a CRISPR-engineered deletion completely removing cid-1 and pup-2 loci. cid-1 also known as pup-1. nIs189 [myo-2::GFP] integrated in or near qC1. No recombination seen between nIs189 and qC1; fails to complement all markers on qC1. Reference: Yang B, et al. PLoS Genet. 2019 Feb 22;15(2):e1007992. doi: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1007992. PMID: 30794539. Superficially wildtype strain expresses GFP in the pharynx and segregates GFP+ dumpy sterile qC1 homozygotes and homozygous pup-1/-2(om129) animals that have reduced fertility and maternal effect embryonic lethality and are Him. Phenotype becomes more severe over successive generations and is more severe at 25°C. Reference: Li Y, et al. Development. 2018 Oct 10;145(19):dev165944. doi: 10.1242/dev.165944. PMID: 30305273.
