|
dauer cuticle variant
|
Any variation in the progression of the formation of the rigid external coating (which is secreted by the hypodermis, seam and some interfacial epithelial cells) during the dauer larva stage, compared to control animals (Wormatlas). The dauer larval stage is a developmentally arrested larval stage that is specialized for survival under harsh, or otherwise unfavorable environmental conditions. |
|
WBPhenotype:0001552
|
dauer pharynx morphology variant
|
Variations in the form or composition of the mouthparts at the anterior end of the digestive tract during the dauer stage, compared to control. |
|
WBPhenotype:0001550
|
dauer buccal cavity morphology variant
|
Variations in the form or composition of the cuticle-lined lumenal region which lies just behind the lips at the entrance to the pharyngeal lumen in dauer stage animals compared to control (Wormatlas). |
|
WBPhenotype:0001553
|
dauer excretory gland variant
|
Dauer stage animals exhibit variations in the form, structure or composition of a pair of large cells in the head that fuse to form a single gland whose contents are released into the excretory duct through a specialized secretory membrane, compared to control (Wormatlas). |
|
WBPhenotype:0001554
|
dauer nose morphology variant
|
Dauer stage animals exhibit variations in the form, structure or composition of any portion of the extreme anterior part of their body compared to control. |
|
WBPhenotype:0001555
|
dauer sensory system morphology variant
|
Any variations in the form, structure or composition of a set of interacting or interdependent entities forming the dauer sensory system, compared to control. The dauer sensory system is used to perceive the physical and chemical environment during the dauer larval stage. |
|
WBPhenotype:0001548
|
dauer axial ratio variant
|
Any variation in the ratio of the body length to body width in a dauer stage animal, compared to control. Long thin animals will have a high axial ratio. |
|
WBPhenotype:0001549
|
dauer gut variant
|
Dauer stage animals exhibit variations in the form, structure or composition of the chain of cuboidal cells which form a central lumen lined by microvilli that allow the passage of food, compared to control. Food passes from the posterior pharynx to the intestine where it is digested and then on to the rectum which processes the waste products for excretion. |
