WormMine: RNAi WBRNAi00078175

• WormBase ID: WBRNAi00078175
• Genotype: daf-2(e1370)
• Phenotype Remark: Ultra-structural analysis revealed gross defects in the cuticles of these worms. The striated, basal layer of the cuticle was present, but had collapsed in some regions with the striations no longer being defined. The cortical layer was wider and had a granular appearance compared with control(RNAi);daf-2(e1370) worms. In some regions, the cortical layer showed accumulation of electron dense material and the placement of the epicuticle was mis-specified as it was within the cortical layer instead of at the apical surface of the cuticle.

Identifier	Name	Description
WBPhenotype:0001551	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.
