|
slow growth
|
Any variation that causes a reduction in growth rate compared to control. |
WBPhenotype:0000209
|
short defecation cycle
|
The mean time between the onset of the defecation motor program is shorter than that observed for control animals. |
WBPhenotype:0000651
|
constipated
|
Animals exhibit delayed or infrequent passage and/or expulsion of fecal matter. |
WBPhenotype:0000314
|
scrawny
|
Animals are slight or meager in body size compared to control animals at the same developmental stage. |
WBPhenotype:0001855
|
fluoride resistant
|
Animals fail to respond to the concentration of fluoride ions that elicits a response in control animals. Alternatively, animals require increased concentration or longer exposure to fluoride ions to elicit the response compared to control animals. |
WBPhenotype:0000391
|
defecation missing motor steps
|
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). |
WBPhenotype:0001641
|
posterior body wall contraction defective
|
Animals lack or exhibit defects in the posterior body muscle contractions during the defecation cycle. |
WBPhenotype:0000380
|
expulsion infrequent
|
The final step of the defecation motor program does not occur at each cycle, but is activated occasionally. During this step in C. elegans specialized enteric muscles contract to expel the contents of the gut through the anus. |
