Heterozygotes are wild-type and segregate WT heterozygotes, Unc (gld-2 gld-1; unc-32 glp-1 homozygotes), and Dpy (hT2 homozygotes; the bli-4 mutation is suppressed by dpy-18). Check Unc-32 animals for tumors to confirm presence of glp-1 in the line. glp-1(q175) is nonsense R191 > stop (opal).

Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, DpyUncs and Steriles. Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it directly from the CGC.

Segregates WT GFP+ heterozygotes, non-GFP sterile gld-2 gld-1 homozygotes, very rare GFP+ homozygous hT2, and dead eggs. Maintain by picking wild-type GFP+. Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it directly from the CGC.

Pick GFP+ heterozygotes to maintain. Segregates fertile GFP+ heterozygotes, non-GFP homozygous mutants (Gld; form germline tumors), very rare GFP+ homozygous hT2, and dead eggs. gld-1(q361) is a missense allele but phenotypically null, which allows the detection of gld-1 mRNA and protein by single molecule FISH or antibody staining.
