WBPhenotype:0000688
|
sterile
|
Animals generate defective gametes, are otherwise unable to reproduce or they generate progeny that are unable to reproduce. |
WBPhenotype:0001260
|
oocyte morphology variant
|
Haploid female germ cells (oocytes) exhibit variations in their overall structure, appearance or contents compared to control. |
WBPhenotype:0000186
|
oogenesis variant
|
Any aberrancy in the processes that influence the generation and maturation of oocytes compared to control animals. |
WBPhenotype:0001980
|
germ cell compartment expansion variant
|
Animals exhibit variations in the increase in size of compartments of the germline. In the C. elegans germline, syncytial compartments enlarge just prior to and coincident with the loop region, eventually abscising, to become fully enclosed germ cells (oocytes). |
WBPhenotype:0000182
|
apoptosis reduced
|
Any perturbation that causes a decrease in the frequency of cell death by apoptosis compared to control animals. |
WBPhenotype:0001952
|
germline nuclear positioning variant
|
Variations in the directed movement/or positioning of a nucleus to a specific location within the germline compartment compared to control. |
WBPhenotype:0001028
|
nuclear appearance variant
|
The morphological appearance of nuclei differs from control animals. |
WBPhenotype:0001792
|
nuclei small
|
Nuclei of specific cells are smaller compared to control animals. |
WBPhenotype:0001982
|
cell membrane organization biogenesis variant
|
Variations in the process(es) involved in the assembly, transport, arrangement or disassembly of cell membrane structures or components compared to control. |
WBPhenotype:0001361
|
chromosome condensation variant
|
Any variation in the progressive compaction of dispersed interphase chromatin into threadlike chromosomes prior to mitotic or meiotic nuclear division, or during apoptosis, in eukaryotic cells compared to control. |
WBPhenotype:0001944
|
oocyte number decreased
|
A decreased number of celullarized haploid female germ cells (oocytes) are present in the gonad compared to control. |
WBPhenotype:0001945
|
oocytes small
|
The size of haploid female germ cells (oocytes) are significantly smaller compared to control. |
WBPhenotype:0001940
|
rachis morphology variant
|
Any variation in the form, structure or composition of the nucleus-free core of germ line cytoplasm in the gonad compared to control animals. In the C. elegans germline, nuclei exiting mitosis and entering meiosis are arranged along the cortex of the germline, partially enclosed by cellular membrane, forming a nucleus-free core of germline cytoplasm, called the rachis. |
WBPhenotype:0001948
|
diakinesis progression during oogenesis variant
|
Developing oocytes show defects in their entry, progression through or exit from the diakinesis stage compared to control animals. Diakinesis is a cell cycle process comprising the steps by which a cell progresses through the final stage of prophase I in meiosis; the transition to meiotic metaphase I. |
WBPhenotype:0001973
|
germ cell compartment size variant
|
Any variation in germ cell compartment size compared to control. |
WBPhenotype:0001947
|
diplotene progression during oogenesis variant
|
Developing oocytes show defects in their entry, progression through or exit from the diplotene stage compared to control animals. Diplotene is a cell cycle process comprising the steps by which a cell progresses through the fourth stage of prophase I in meiosis, in which the homologous chromosomes begin to separate and the synaptonemal complex dissolves. |
WBPhenotype:0001971
|
germ cell compartment anucleate
|
Germ cell compartments do not contain a nucleus. |
WBPhenotype:0001975
|
germ cell compartment large
|
Germ cell compartments are larger than that of control animals. |
WBPhenotype:0001977
|
germ cell partition morphology variant
|
Any variation in the form or composition of the compartment partitions in the germline of females/hermaphrodites that exist when nuclei are still connected to a common cytoplasm (rachis), compared to control animals. |
WBPhenotype:0001979
|
gonad vesiculated
|
Animals contain small, fluid-filled, anucleate, spherical membrane-bound structures within the gonad. |
WBPhenotype:0001955
|
multiple nuclei oocyte
|
Haploid female germ cells (oocytes) contain more than one nucleus. |
WBPhenotype:0001956
|
oocytes lack nucleus
|
Haploid female germ cells (oocytes) lack a nucleus. |
WBPhenotype:0001943
|
rachis wide
|
The width of the nucleus-free core of germline cytoplasm in the gonad is larger compared to control animals. |
