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:0001668
|
oocyte accumulation
|
An increased number of oocytes are retained in the gonad without becoming endomitotic, compared to control. |
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: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:0001567
|
nuclei enlarged
|
Nuclei of specific cells are larger compared to control animals. |
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:0001969
|
germ cell compartment morphology variant
|
Any variation in the form or composition of the compartments in the germline of females/hermaphrodites compared to control animals. In C. elegans these compartments contain a nucleus and are connected to a common cytoplasm (rachis). These compartments eventually undergo cellularization and become oocytes. |
WBPhenotype:0001975
|
germ cell compartment large
|
Germ cell compartments are larger than that of control animals. |
WBPhenotype:0001979
|
gonad vesiculated
|
Animals contain small, fluid-filled, anucleate, spherical membrane-bound structures within the gonad. |
WBPhenotype:0001941
|
rachis narrow
|
The nucleus-free core of germline cytoplasm in the gonad is not as wide as control animals. |
