- transposon mutator
Animals exhibit an increase in frequency of transposition events (DNA movement to different positions within the genome of a single cell) causing an accumulation of lesions within the genome, compared to control.
- heteroplasmy
The presence of a mixture of more than one type of an organellar genome (mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) or plastid DNA) within a cell or individual.
- G tract instability
Animals exhibit an increase in the rate of deletion events in mono-G or G-rich tracts within the genome compared to control.
- active phase switch defective
Activation of the active phase of egg laying is defective, leading to an abnormally long inactive phase, based on the analysis of the distribution of the log intervals of egg-laying events.
