WBPhenotype:0001412
|
alae morphology variant
|
Animals exhibit variations in the organization of the longitudinal ridges on the cuticle along the length of the animal, from that observed for control animals of the same developmental stage. |
WBPhenotype:0001517
|
annulae morphology variant
|
Animals exhibit variations in the circumferential pattern of ridges in the outer cortical layer of the cuticle, compared to that observed in control animals of the same developmental stage. |
WBPhenotype:0001516
|
helical cuticle
|
Animals exhibit a helically twisted cuticle. In practice the degree of twisting is measured as the number of helical twists the alae make about anterior/posterior axis of the animal. |
WBPhenotype:0001515
|
struts variant
|
Animals exhibit variations in the quantity or patterning of electron-dense columnar structures that join the basal and cortical cuticle layers, from that observed in control animals. |
WBPhenotype:0000025
|
blistered
|
Fluid-filled blisters appear on the cuticle. |
WBPhenotype:0001551
|
dauer cuticle variant
|
Any variation in the progression of the formation of the rigid external coating (which is secreted by the hypodermis, seam and some interfacial epithelial cells) during the dauer larva stage, compared to control animals (Wormatlas). The dauer larval stage is a developmentally arrested larval stage that is specialized for survival under harsh, or otherwise unfavorable environmental conditions. |
