Heterozygotes are wild-type and segregate WT heterozygotes, Unc (unc-13 gld-1 homozygotes), and Dpy (hT2 homozygotes; the bli-4 mutation is suppressed by dpy-18). XX Uncs have tumorous germline and are sterile; XO Uncs are cross fertile (though they don't mate due to the Unc mutation). q485 is the canonical allele of gld-1. It behaves like deletions of the locus in complementation tests and thus is genetically null. Molecularly, it is a deletion of 82 bases and fails to produce gld-1 RNA and protein.

Heterozygotes are wild-type and segregate WT heterozygotes, Unc (gld-2 gld-1; unc-32 glp-1 homozygotes), and Dpy (hT2 homozygotes; the bli-4 mutation is suppressed by dpy-18). Check Unc-32 animals for tumors to confirm presence of glp-1 in the line. glp-1(q175) is nonsense R191 > stop (opal).

Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, DpyUncs and steriles with a tumorous germline. Pick WT to maintain. Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it from the CGC. This strain cannot be distributed to commercial organizations. This strain cannot be used for any commercial purpose or for work on human subjects.

Segregates WT GFP+ heterozygotes, non-GFP sterile gld-2 gld-1 homozygotes, very rare GFP+ homozygous hT2, and dead eggs. Maintain by picking wild-type GFP+. Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it directly from the CGC. This strain cannot be distributed to commercial organizations. This strain cannot be used for any commercial purpose or for work on human subjects.

Pick GFP+ heterozygotes to maintain. Segregates fertile GFP+ heterozygotes, non-GFP homozygous mutants (Gld; form germline tumors), very rare GFP+ homozygous hT2, and dead eggs. Reference: Kershner et al. (2014) PNAS 111: 3739-3744.

mCherry knocked into C terminal of vit-3 by CRISPR/Cas9 in the background of parental strain BCN9071 vit-2(crg9070[vit-2::gfp]) X. This resulting double-labelled strain was crossed six times with N2 to remove potential off-target mutations. mCherry and GFP are co-localized in the intestine, body cavity, oocyte, and embryo in adult hermaphrodites.

Maintain at 15C. Pick fertile GFP+ hermaphrodites to maintain. Segregates WT GFP+ heterozygotes, non-glowing sterile gld-1 homozygotes, very rare GFP+ homozygous hT2, and dead eggs. fem-1 is temperature sensitive; causes feminization. gld-1 homozygotes form germline tumors.

Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, steriles with a tumorous germline (gld-1 homozygotes), and Uncs that lay non-refractile eggs that fail to hatch (gna-2 unc-55) homozygotes.
