The double heterozygote is WT. WT will segregate WT, DpyUncs, mid-larval lethal (hT1 homozygotes) and dead eggs. The DpyUncs are homozygous for zu155 and zu148 and will segregate only dead embryos; the dead embryos have excess hypodermis and muscle and lack germ cells and intestine.

Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, Dpys which give only dead eggs, mid-larval lethals (hT1 homozygotes), males and dead eggs. Mutation in pop-1 results in the MS blastomere adopting the fate of the E blastomere. pop-1 mutant embryos have twice the amount of wild type gut and only make anterior pharynx. him-5 is outside the region balanced by hT2.

hmp-2(zu364) homozygotes are 99% embryonic or L1 lethal due to a defect in embryonic body elongation; approximately 1% survive to adult stages. Well balanced by hIn1. Maintain by picking WT.

Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, Hmr inviable embyros and Egl Unc. Hmr: Hammerhead - defective hypodermal enclosure, especially in anterior regions; approximately 2% of zu389 embryos enclose normally and are Hmp [Humpback: defective body elongation, abnormal bulges on dorsal side]. See also WBPaper00005031. Received new stock from Allison Lynch in the Hardin lab 3/2009.

Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, DpyUncs and dead eggs.

Viable, fertile, apparently normal.

Heterozygotes are WT. Embryos from unc-30 mex-5 homozygotes produce approximately the WT number of cells but do not undergo body morphogenesis and die without hatching.
