WBPhenotype:0000634
|
pharyngeal pumping variant
|
Any variation in the contraction and relaxation movements of the pharyngeal muscle that mediate feeding in nematodes compared to control. |
WBPhenotype:0000055
|
early larval arrest
|
Larvae arrest during early larval development. In C. elegans, this occurs during the L1 or L2 stages of larval development. |
WBPhenotype:0000659
|
feeding behavior variant
|
Behavior associated with the intake of food is altered compared to control. |
WBPhenotype:0000710
|
intestinal morphology variant
|
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 (Wormatlas). |
