WormMine: Phenotype WBPhenotype:0000391 defecation missing motor steps

• Description: Animals lack one or more of the stereotyped muscle contractions that result in defecation compared to control. In C. elegans these contractions include posterior body contraction (pBoc), anterior body contraction (aBoc), expulsion of gut contents by enteric muscle contraction (Emc) and opening of anus (Exp).

Identifier	Name	Description
WBPhenotype:0000650	defecation variant	Animals exhibit variations in the processes involved in eliminating gut contents compared to control animals. In C. elegans the sequence of events during defecation includes posterior body contraction (pBoc), relaxation, anterior body contraction (aBoc), expulsion of gut contents by enteric muscle contraction (Emc) and opening of anus (Exp), and intercycle period (Wormatlas).
