WS297

Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Phenotype : WBPhenotype:0002315 roaming variant

Description  Animals exhibit variations in their movement at high-speed in the forward direction with brief backward movement compared to control. During roaming, control animals often traverse wide regions.

Identifier Name Description
WBPhenotype:0002319 roaming increased Animals exhibit an increase in their high-speed movement in the forward direction with brief backward movement compared to control.
WBPhenotype:0001639 roaming reduced Animals exhibit a decrease in their high-speed movement in the forward direction with brief backward movement compared to control. In C. elegans, Animals do not move more than a few body lengths from their starting position and searches occur locally with pivoting behavior.

Identifier Name Description
WBPhenotype:0000641 activity level variant Any variation in the degree of movement compared to control animals.
WBPhenotype:0000662 foraging behavior variant Variations in the behavior by which an organism locates food compared to control animals. In C. elegans roaming or dwelling activity on food are two examples of parameters used to assess this behavior. Roaming is defined as moving in a high-speed forward direction with brief backward movement, often traversing wide regions. Dwelling is defined as low-speed/high turning movement restricted to a confined region.
