otEx5094 [swsn-2.2p::swsn-2.2::mChopti + ttx-3::GFP]. Pick GFP+ to maintain. ok3161 homozygotes arrest in early larval development. otEx5094 rescues lethality, but animals are still somewhat sick at 25C.

Homozygous lethal deletion chromosome balanced by hT2. GFP+ heterozygotes are wild-type that segregate wild-type GFP+, arrested hT2 aneuploids, and non-GFP tm3309 homozygotes. tm3395 homozygotes are maternal effect lethal (late embryo & larval lethal) and have progeny with gonadogenesis defects. Pick wild-type GFP+ animals to maintain. Reference: Large EE and Mathies LD (2014 Jan 8). G3, doi: 10.1534/g3.113.009852.

C18E3.2. Homozygous sterile deletion chromosome balanced by bli-4- and GFP-marked translocation. Heterozygotes are WT with pharyngeal GFP signal, and segregate WT GFP, arrested hT2 aneuploids, and non-GFP ok3161 homozygotes (sterile, eggs don't hatch). Homozygous hT2[bli-4 let-? qIs48] inviable. Pick WT GFP and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. External left primer: CCAGGAAGTGCTCCACAAAT. External right primer: AACTCGTGTCGCTTCTGGTT. Internal left primer: CCATTGCCGAAAAAGAAGAA. Internal right primer: CACCTTTTGGAACATGTATCTG. Internal WT amplicon: 1250 bp. Deletion size: 1122 bp. Deletion left flank: AAAGAAGAAGTATGCGGATAAATGTATTCA. Deletion right flank: GAGGAAGGAGTTCAAAGGTATTTGCCGTTT.
