WormMine: Phenotype WBPhenotype:0001432 over retracted male tail

• Description: Adult males exhibit a truncated tail, often without a fan or have well-developed fans but squarish, truncated back ends compared to control. In C. elegans this is due to precocious male tail tip retraction beginning in the early L3 stage (normally retraction begins in the L4 stage). Condition can be lethal if the function of the anus is affected.

Identifier	Name	Description
WBPhenotype:0000070	male tail morphology variant	Animals exhibit variations in the structure or organization of the somatic reproductive components of the posterior segment of the male from that observed in control males. In C. elegans, this region of the male includes the terminal canals of the reproductive tract, the digestive tract, and spicule channels along with the male specific sensilla (ray, post-cloacal, hook and spicule) and extends to the tip of the acellular fan.
WBPhenotype:0001297	male tail development variant	Any variation in the process whose specific outcome is the progression of the male tail over time, from its formation to the mature structure, compared to control.
