WormMine: Phenotype WBPhenotype:0000262 axoneme morphology variant

• Description: Animals exhibit variations in the structure or composition of the microtubule-based fibrillar bundle (axoneme) that makes up the core of the middle part of the cilium (in a pattern of nine doublet microtubules attached to the membrane and a variable number of smaller singlet microtubules occupying the center). In C. elegans, the axoneme microtubules are arranged in a pattern of nine doublets attached to the membrane with seven smaller singlet microtubules occupying the center.

Identifier	Name	Description
WBPhenotype:0000263	axoneme short	The microbule-based fibrillar bundle in the core of the cilium is reduced in length compared to axonemes of similar cells in control animals.
WBPhenotype:0001250	amphid channel axoneme morphology variant	Animals exhibit variations in the structure or composition of the microtuble-based fibrillar core, axoneme, of the cilia of the neurons that project through the sensillum pore to the outside of the animal, compared to that observed in control animals.

Identifier	Name	Description
WBPhenotype:0000615	cilia morphology variant	Animals exhibit variations in the structure or organization of the microtubule-based dendritic projections extending from the cell body, compared to that observed in control animals. In C. elegans, cilia are classified as channel cilia or wing cilia depending on their placement within the sensillum. Channel cilia of control animals are cylindrical, extend into the sensillum pore and are exposed to the outside. Wing cilia of control animals vary in shape, are embedded in the sensillum sheath cell and are not typically refractory to dyes indicating exposure to the outside.
