Maintain at 20-25C. Cold-sensitive; inviable at 15C. Glucose-sensitive; will die on 20 mM glucose when grown on OP50. Characteristic withered tail tip defect. Reference: Svensk E, et al. PLoS Genet. 2016 Apr 15;12(4):e1005982.

The fld-1 mutation acts as a suppressor of iglr-2 but the strain still displays weak version of the iglr-2 phenotypes including reduced growth in the presence of glucose or at 15°C, and occasionally produces a tail tip defect.
