synchronization calcium signal defective pharynx

Calcium spikes lack synchrony in the musculature of the corpus and the terminal bulb as seen in control.

neuron activation variant

Activity of the neuron varies from that observed for control animals or neurons. In C. elegans neuron activity is often assayed by observing calcium spikes.

obsolete neuron physiology variant

OBSOLETE: Activity of the neuron varies from that observed for control animals or neurons. In C. elegans neuron activity is often assayed by observing calcium spikes.

disorganized pharyngeal EPG

Electropharyngeograms do not show a similar pattern as control animals. C. elegans animals show a repeating regular pattern in which each pump is associated with an excitatory depolarizing wave, often punctuated by brief negative spikes, followed by a plateau phase, and ending with an inhibitory hyperpolarizing wave.

manganese toxicity resistant

Animals fail to exhibit toxicity to the concentration of manganese that elicits a response in control animals. Alternatively, animals require increased concentration or longer exposure to this compound to elicit the response compared to control animals. In C. elegans toxic responses to manganese include dopamine (DA) neuron neurodegeneration.
