Maternal effect lethal mutation linked to dpy-11(e224) and pseudolinked to unc-24(e138), and balanced by recessive lethal translocation. Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, arrested nT1 aneuploids, arrested nT1 homozygotes, and viable DpyUnc t2035 homozygotes that produce dead eggs. GE2541 is also homozygous for xpf-1(e1487) so that male progeny are segregated. Pick WT and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. Please reference Li-Leger et al., G3 11(12) 2021 in any work resulting from use of this mutation. xpf-1 previously known as him-9.

Animals which have the Duplication are Dpy. Animals which have lost the Duplication are DpyUncNcl. qDp3 homozygotes are lethal. Maintain by picking Dpy non-Unc. Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it from the CGC.

Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, dead eggs (homozygous cdl-1(e2510), and Dpy Unc. e2510 carries a missense mutation at the 249th amino acid from Pro to Ser.

Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, paralyzed Dpys, and arrested embryos. Throws males. e2500 pka zen-2(e2500).

Small and Unc.

Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, DpyUnc, lethal hT2 homozygotes (arrest stage unknown) and dead eggs (aneuploids). Maintain by picking WT. [March 1995: Apparently the lethal mutation is not in the balanced region. It occasionally crosses off and the strain starts giving Bli-4 hT2 homozygotes again. From Mark Edgley.] This strain was generated by the Genetic Toolkit project, which should be acknowledged in any publications resulting from its use: The Genetic Toolkit is funded by the NIH National Center for Research Resources (NCRR) (USA) to Ann M. Rose, David L. Baillie, and Donald L. Riddle. Report all experimental results to Ann Rose.

Hets are WT and segregate WT, Dpys and maternally rescued clk double mutants (WT). To study clk double mutants, pick WT worms singly onto plates. Maternally rescued clk-1 clk-2 worms segregate very slow hatching and developing progeny and no Dpys. Double mutants do not give a viable strain but rather die out over a few generations.

Maternal effect uncoordinated.

Daf-c at 25C. Slower growing than clk-1(e2519).

Superficially WT. Pick WT to propagate. Throws WT (expressing unc-119::YFP) and DpyUncs. irDp1 is sDp3 carrying a spontaneous integrant of an array carrying unc-119::YFP + unc-32(+) + med-1(+), originally generated in BC4638. irDp1 appears to complement everything sDp3 does and has a similar meiotic transmission frequency of 60%. In another strain, irDp2 was observed to lose ability to complement dpy-17. irDp1 confers a progressive adult egg laying defect (also seen with sDp3).

Heterozygotes are Unc and segregate Unc, DpyUnc (Dpy is ts) and dead eggs. Maintain by picking Uncs.

Heterozygotes are Vulvaless and segregate more Vul, Vul Unc-36 and Vul Unc-32. n1045 is cold sensitive-strain gives some arrested larvae (L2) which look like little sticks.

Heterozygotes are Sma. At 25C, hets segregate Sma, SmaMuv (lin-8; sma-3 lin-37), and SmaUncMuvSte (lin-8; sma-3 lin-13 unc-36). At 15C, hets segregate Sma, SmaMuv (lin-8; sma-3 lin-37) and SmaUnc which give sterile F2 (lin-8; sma-3 lin-13 unc-36). n387 is a ts maternal effect mutation.
