Animals heterozygous for yDp4 are Dpy non-Flu non-Unc. Animals which have lost yDp4 are FluUnc. Animals homozygous for yDp4 are dead (embryonic lethal). Low percentage of non-Dpy non-Unc progeny. These give a high percentage of Unc male self-progeny and are inferred to be yDp4 XO hermaphrodites.

Age-dependent defect in meiotic double-strand break formation. Homozygous mutants produce elevated frequency of males and dead embryos resulting from defects in meiotic chromosome segregation. The frequency of both males and dead embryos increases in later broods. Reference: Rosu S, et al. PLoS Genet. 2013;9(8):e1003674.

Heterozygotes are Unc and segregate Uncs, dead eggs, and non-Uncs (dsb-1 homozygotes), which produce 99% inviable embryos due to meiotic nondisjunction. Pick Unc to maintain and check for correct segregation of progeny. we11 is a TCA to TAA nonsense mutation in the dsb-1 coding sequence that introduces a premature stop after leucine 96. Reference: Stamper EL, et al. PLoS Genet. 2013;9(8):e1003679.

mIs14 [myo-2::GFP]. Heterozygotes are WT and GFP+ with signal in the pharynx. Heterozygote animals segregate heterozygotes (WT GFP+), mIn1 homozygotes (Dpy and brighter GFP+), and rsr-2(tm2625) homozygotes (Lva non-GFP). Pick WT GFP+ animals and check for proper segregation of progeny to maintain. Reference: Fontrodona L, et al. PLoS Genet. 2013 Jun;9(6):e1003543.
