elongating embryo Ce

importer/temp
[:life-stage/id "WBls:0000015"] :life-stage/definition The C. elegans life stage spanning 350-620min after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. The stage that embryo starts elongation until elongation is over.

2-fold embryo Ce

importer/temp
[:life-stage/id "WBls:0000019"] :life-stage/definition The C. elegans life stage spanning 460-520min after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. The shape of embryo is elongated and double fold. A stage between 1.5-fold embryo and 3-fold embryo.

comma embryo Ce

importer/temp
[:life-stage/id "WBls:0000017"] :life-stage/definition The C. elegans life stage spanning 390-420min after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. The shape of embryo looks like a comma. A stage between bean embryo and 1.5-fold embryo.

1.5-fold embryo Ce

importer/temp
[:life-stage/id "WBls:0000018"] :life-stage/definition The C. elegans life stage spanning 420-460min after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. The shape of embryo is elongated and fold back 50\%. A stage between comma embryo and 2-fold embryo.

fully-elongated embryo Ce

importer/temp
[:life-stage/id "WBls:0000021"] :life-stage/definition The C. elegans life stage spanning 620-800min(hatch) after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. A stage after elongation is over. The last stage of embryogenesis. Also called pre-hatched embryo, late embryo or morphogenetic embryo.

3-fold embryo Ce

importer/temp
[:life-stage/id "WBls:0000020"] :life-stage/definition The C. elegans life stage spanning 520-620min after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. The shape of embryo is elongated and tripple fold. A stage between 2-fold embryo and fully-elongated embryo. Also called pretzel embryo or pretzel stage.

bean embryo Ce

importer/temp
[:life-stage/id "WBls:0000016"] :life-stage/definition The C. elegans life stage spanning 350-390min after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. Emrbyo elongation started but have not formed comma shape yet. The shape of embryo looks like a lima bean. A stage right before comma embryo. Also called lima embryo or lima bean stage.
