Whole genome sequenced strain.

Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, Dpy Steriles (mnC1 homozygotes), and Unc-4 animals which have a partially penetrant Mel phenotype.

Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, DpyUncs, and peb-1(cu9) homozygotes which arrest as larvae with a stuffed pharynx, abnormal hindgut and g1 gland cell morphology, and molting defects.

Pick wild-type to maintain. Heterozygotes are wild-type and should segregate wild-type heterozygotes, bcl-11 homozygotes (L1 larval arrest with starved appearance), and Dpy Unc homozygotes (Medium Dpy, Shrinker, poor backing). Maintain by picking wild-type and scoring for proper segregation of progeny. bcl-11 homozygotes have weak pharyngeal muscle contractions and pharyngeal lumen fails to open. cu10 is a 555 bp deletion (V:6360921..6361460). Predicted bcl-11 null allele. Reference: Vilimas, Tomas. (2004). Genes regulating ceh-22 and pharyngeal development of Caenorhabditis elegans.. University of Illinois at Chicago.

Balancer recombination happens frequently at 23-25C, strain must be maintained at 16-20C. Homozygous lethal mutation balanced by Dpy- and myo-2p::Venus-marked inversion. Heterozygotes are non-Dpy with relatively dim pharyngeal GFP (Venus) expression, and segregate heterozygous non-Dpy Venus+, non-Venus cc2557 homozygotes (L1 arrest), and Dpy with brighter Venus+ (tmC20 homozygotes). Pick wild-type Venus(+) and check for proper segregation of progeny to maintain. cc2557 is an engineered mutation creating an early stop (T8*). Presumptive rps-10 null.
