Excretory canal defect. Canal varies in length from no outgrowth to almost complete outgrowth. Frequent small vacuoles and extra branchings in the canal lumen visible only by Nomarski microscopy. Animals are somewhat pale.

Maintain at 15C. cyk-1(or596) is temperature-sensitive embryonic lethal. arIs198 [glt-3p::CFP + glt-3p::LifeAct::TagRFP]; expresses cytoplasmic CFP and LifeAct::TagRFP in the excretory canal cell under control of the glt-3 promoter. Shortened excretory canals.
