WBPhenotype:0000202
|
alae variant
|
Any variation in the small linear ridges running along the lateral lines of the cuticle, lengthwise along the body compared to control (Wormatlas). |
WBPhenotype:0000075
|
cuticle attachment variant
|
Any variation in the attachment of the rigid external coating (which is secreted by the hypodermis, seam and some interfacial epithelial cells) to the outer body of an animal compared to control (Wormatlas). |
WBPhenotype:0001688
|
surface coat variant
|
The electron dense, amorphous envelope that comprises the outermost layer of the cuticle varies in composition from that observed in control animals of the same developmental stage. The integrity of the surface coat is often revealed by an altered antigenicity or biochemical make up. |
WBPhenotype:0000427
|
no cuticle
|
Animals lack the rigid external coating which is secreted by the hypodermis, seam and some interfacial epithelial cells (Wormatlas). |
