|
male mating efficiency reduced
|
The number of cross progeny sired by males is reduced compared to control. |
WBPhenotype:0001414
|
male mating defective
|
Males exhibit defects in the specific actions or reactions that are associated with reproduction. |
WBPhenotype:0002130
|
post mating variant
|
Males exhibit variations of the behaviors observed in control animals that follow the completion of mating. |
WBPhenotype:0004030
|
male response to hermaphrodite variant
|
Any variation in the response by the male to a hermaphrodite after initial contact following mate finding compared to control. In C. elegans the male stops forward locomotion, presses the ventral side of his tail against his partner's body, and begins moving backward along the hermaphrodite. Male response behavior is initiated when sensory neurons located in the rays of his tail contact a potential mate. |

|
post hermaphrodite contact variant
|
Males exhibit variations in mating behavior after contacting its mate compared to control. |
WBPhenotype:0004005
|
pre hermaphrodite contact variant
|
Males exhibit variations in mating behavior prior to contacting its mate compared to control. |
WBPhenotype:0001238
|
male mating latency variant
|
Any variation in the length of time required for a male to find a mate and initiate the search for the vulva. In C. elegans, the latency period includes the time males spend to find a hermaphrodite and pause to press its ventral side against the surface of the hermaphrodite and initiate a backing up search for the vulva. |
