octanol chemotaxis variant

Any variation in the directed movement of a worm in response to a specific concentration gradient of octanol. In C. elegans, octanol is typically a repellant.

nonanone chemotaxis variant

Any variation in the directed movement of a worm in response to a specific concentration gradient of nonanone. In C. elegans, nonanone is typically a repellant.

quinine chemotaxis variant

Any variation in the directed movement of a worm in response to a specific concentration gradient of the bitter tastant quinine, a water soluble molecule. In C. elegans, quinine is typically a repellant.

garlic chemotaxis variant

Any variation in the directed movement of a worm in response to a specific concentration gradient of garlic compared to control. In C. elegans, garlic is typically a repellant.

curly

Animals exhibit a greater number of bends in their body compared to control. C. elegans posture assumes more than a single sine wave.

vulvaless

No vulval tissue is produced. In C. elegans, this is usually a result of all six vulval precursor cells adopting a tertiary fate.

bromide chemotaxis variant

Any variation in the directed movement of a worm in response to a specific concentration gradient of bromide. In C. elegans, bromide is typically an attractant.

octanol chemotaxis hypersensitive

Animals execute a response, via directed movement to octanol at a lower concentration or shorter exposure time compared to control. In C. elegans, animals avoid octanol.

stuffed pharynx

Pharynx becomes clogged with food. In C. elegans, this is often a result of pharyngeal pumping defects.

nonanone chemotaxis defective

Failure to execute the characteristic response to nonanone compared to control. In C. elegans, nonanone is a repellant.
