Defective in dye filling (FITC or DiO) of amphid and phasmid neurons. Chemotaxis defective.

Dyf (DiI), chemotaxis defective towards IAA. Preliminary results show increased longevity.

ogEx49 [dyf-3(+) + rol-6(su1006)]. Maintain by picking Rollers. Animals which have lost the array are Dyf (DiI).

sEx13318 [rCesC04C3.5::GFP + pCeh361]. Maintain by picking WT. WT animals are GFP+. Strain construction supported by Genome British Columbia and Genome Canada. Please acknowledge McKay et al, Cold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology 68: 159-169 2004 (WBPaper00006525)..

C04C3.5. Homozygous sterile deletion chromosome balanced by GFP-marked translocation. Heterozygotes are WT with pharyngeal GFP signal, and segregate WT GFP, arrested nT1[qIs51] aneuploids, and non-GFP gk760 homozygotes (sterile adult). Homozygous nT1[qIs51] inviable. Pick WT GFP and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. External left primer: ACCACCCATCATGTTACCGT. External right primer: GAAGCTCGTCGACCGTAGTC. Internal left primer: TCACGCATCCTTCTTCTCCT. Internal right primer: TTGCAGGGAGTTTCTATGGG. Internal WT amplicon: 1853 bp. Deletion size: 736 bp. Deletion left flank: TACTCGTCCATATACTGAGGTCGGAAGGAC. Deletion right flank: CGGACCTCCTGCATCTGAACTTTCGACAGT.
