Most defects are similar to bar-1(ga80) single mutant animals [bar-1(ga80) hermaphrodites are usually Egl and often have a protruding vulva (Pvl), although approx. 40% of animals appear WT on plates. Also slightly Unc. In bar-1(ga80) hermaphrodites any of the six vulval precursor cells (P3.p - P8.p) can sometimes fuse with hyp7 without dividing, and P5.p - P7.p can adopt the tertiary cell fate instead of the primary or secondary fates. In addition, the neuroblast QL and its progeny migrate towards the anterior instead of the posterior, and the cell P12 usually adopts the fate of P11. bar-1(ga80) do mate, but poorly. bar-1 encodes a beta-catenin molecule and the ga80 mutation is predicted to cause an early truncation of the protein.] Increased severity of ray 1 displacement.

Heterozygotes are wild-type with pharyngeal-expressed GFP, and segregate wild-type GFP+(pharynx) heterozygotes, arrested nT1[qIs51] homozygotes, and viable non-GFP(pharynx) rad-51(iow53[GFP::rad-51]) homozygotes. Balancer is prone to breaking down. If a population contains a mix of bright and dim GFP animals, pick dim GFP and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. iow53 inserted a GFP tag at the N-terminus of the endogenous rad-51 locus, but the tagged protein is not fully functional. non-GFP(pharynx) rad-51(iow53[GFP::rad-51]) homozygotes form GFP foci in the germline that are mostly spo-11 dependent, and GFP::rad-51 homozygotes have defects in unloading RAD-51. Created by CRISPR using pDD282, therefore may also contain 3XFLAG. Reference: Koury E, et al. Nucleic Acids Res. 2018 Jan 25;46(2):748-764.
