WormMine: Phenotype WBPhenotype:0000300 amphid sheath cell morphology variant

• Description: Animals exhibit variations in the structure or composition of the amphid sensillum cell that ensheathes the dendrite tips of channel neurons and wing cell dedritic processes, from that observed in control animals. Sheath cells in C.elegans have highly invaginated and vesiculated surfaces, which provide a specialized environment for the dendritic structures.

Identifier	Name	Description
WBPhenotype:0000972	neuronal sheath cell morphology variant	Animals exhibit variations in the structure or composition of the glia-like support cell of neuronal sensilla that ensheathes the dendrite tips and or processes of neurons, from that observed in control animals. In C. elegans, sheath cells have highly invaginated and vesiculated surfaces, which provide a specialized environment for dendritic structures.
WBPhenotype:0001527	amphid phasmid sensillum morphology variant	Animals exhibit variations in the quantity, structure or organization of any component of any specialized chemosensory organs located on the head or along the tail, compared to that observed in control animals.
