WormMine: RNAi WBRNAi00092448

• WormBase ID: WBRNAi00092448
• Genotype: fem-3(e1996)
• Phenotype Remark: fem-3(e1996) results in a "no sperm" or "oocytes only" phenotype (feminization of germline). In contrast, fbf-1 RNAi results in a "no oocytes" or "sperm only" phenotype (masculinization of germline). fem-3(e1996);fbf-1(RNAi) animals exhibit only the "no sperm"/"oocytes only" phenotype. Thus, the fem-3(e1996) mutation is epistatic to fbf-1 RNAi with respect to the "no sperm" phenotype.
• Remark: (Figure 5) fbf-1 RNAi

2 Phenotype

Identifier	Name	Description
WBPhenotype:0000682	feminization of germline	Hermaphrodites are transformed into fertile females; In C. elegans, XO fog animals are somatically male but produce oocytes instead of, or in addition to, sperm.
WBPhenotype:0000290	sperm absent	Animals lack fully specialized male gametes that are competent for fertilization.
