WBPhenotype:0001639 | roaming reduced | Animals exhibit a decrease in their high-speed movement in the forward direction with brief backward movement compared to control. In C. elegans, Animals do not move more than a few body lengths from their starting position and searches occur locally with pivoting behavior. |
WBPhenotype:0002317 | dwelling increased | Animals exhibit an increase in the low-speed/high turning movement that usually restricts them to a confined region compared to control. |

WBPhenotype:0000662 | foraging behavior variant | Variations in the behavior by which an organism locates food compared to control animals. In C. elegans roaming or dwelling activity on food are two examples of parameters used to assess this behavior. Roaming is defined as moving in a high-speed forward direction with brief backward movement, often traversing wide regions. Dwelling is defined as low-speed/high turning movement restricted to a confined region. |
