WBPhenotype:0000730
|
apoptosis variant
|
Animals exhibit variations in any processes that influence the programmed cell death pathway. Induction of the apoptotic pathway triggers the activity of proteolytic caspases, which in turn lead to the destruction of the cell. |
|
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:0001180
|
accumulated germline cell corpses
|
Animals exhibit an increase in the quantity of germ line cells that have undergone programmed cell death but have not been engulfed. |
|
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: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:0001973
|
germ cell compartment size variant
|
Any variation in germ cell compartment size compared to control. |
|
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:0001943
|
rachis wide
|
The width of the nucleus-free core of germline cytoplasm in the gonad is larger compared to control animals. |
