Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, Lon males and thin sterile Unc animals. Maintain by picking WT.

qIs48 is an insertion of ccEx9747 with markers: myo-2::GFP expressed brightly in the pharynx throughout development, pes-10::GFP expressed in embryos, and a gut promoter driving GFP in the intestine, and is homozygous lethal. Segregates WT glowing hets, non-glowing sterile Dpys, very rare homozygous hT2 glowing animals, and dead eggs. Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it directly from the CGC. Note: qIs48 has been observed to recombine off hT2, typically leaving behind a functional homozygous viable hT2 with Bli-4 phenotype.

Heterozygotes are medium Dpy and glowing. Hets throw small, sterile DpyUncs and dead eggs. hT2[bli-4(e937) qIs48] is homozygous lethal. qIs48 is an insertion of ccEx9747 with markers myo-2::GFP expressed in the pharynx throughout development, pes-10::GFP expressed in the embryo, and gut promoter F22B7.9 driving GFP in the intestine. Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it directly from the CGC. Note: qIs48 has been observed to recombine off hT2, typically leaving behind a functional homozygous viable hT2 with Bli-4 phenotype.

Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, Dpy (these are thin, sterile and Unc after L1--there is no sexual maturation), and Lon males. Maintain by picking WT.
