Daf-c strongly but not completely suppressed; some dauers visible at 25C. sa935 alone is moderate Daf-d (dauer defective) in plate starvation assays, and resistant to exogenous dauer pheromone. sa935 confers strong suppression of daf-8 and daf-14, weak suppression of daf-1, -4, -7. scd-2(sa935) single mutant looks WT. snb-1(md247) hypomorph is an excellent balancer for scd-2; snb-1 is immediately neighboring. Maintain at 15 degrees.

Aldicarb resistant. Lethargic Unc - jerky especially in backward movement. Low pumping rate. Molecular lesion for md247 is a 20 bp duplication yielding a frameshift mid-way through the transmembrane domain.
