Strain Genotype Species Description
BS3156 unc-13(e51) gld-1(q485)/hT2 [dpy-18(h662)] I; +/hT2 [bli-4(e937)] III. C. elegans 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.
BS3392 gld-2(q497) gld-1(q485)/hT2 [dpy-18(h662)] I; unc-32(e189) glp-1(q175)/hT2 [bli-4(e937)] III. C. elegans 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).
JK1466 gld-1(q485)/dpy-5(e61) unc-13(e51) I. C. elegans 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.
JK2879 gld-2(q497) gld-1(q485)/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). C. elegans 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.
JK3025 gld-1(q485) I/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). C. elegans Segregates WT GFP+ heterozygotes, non-GFP sterile 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. Reference: Jeong J, et al. PLoS Genet. 2011 Mar;7(3):e1001348.
JK4832 gld-1(q485) gld-2(q497) lst-1(ok814) sygl-1(tm5040) I/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). C. elegans 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.
RAF3 gld-1(q485) I/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III); fem-1(hc17) IV. C. elegans 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.

XA774 gld-1(q485)/gna-2(qa705) unc-55(e1170) I. C. elegans 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.
