WBPhenotype:0000050
|
embryonic lethal
|
Animals die during embryonic development. In C. elegans, often assayed as refractile eggs that fail to hatch; when applied to large-scale RNAi screens in C. elegans, more than 10% of embryos die. |
WBPhenotype:0000031
|
slow growth
|
Any variation that causes a reduction in growth rate compared to control. |
WBPhenotype:0000054
|
larval lethal
|
The animal dies at any time between hatching and onset to adulthood. |
WBPhenotype:0000060
|
adult lethal
|
Premature lethality during the adult stage. When applied to large-scale RNAi screens in C. elegans, this phenotype is present in at least 10% of analyzed worms, or at least 30% in the case of rrf-3 perturbed background. |
WBPhenotype:0000689
|
maternal sterile
|
Animals produce no or very few embryos as a result of experimental treatment. This is in contrast to sterility due to genetic perturbations (maternal effect sterility). |
