Variations in the migration pattern of distal tip cells compared to control animals. In C. elegans, DTCs located on the anterior and posterior ends of the gonad primordium typically migrate in a symmetrical U-shaped pattern.
Variations in the cue-directed extension of an axon towards a specific target site compared to control. (Axon guidance often depends on a combination of attractive and repulsive cues).
Variation in the migration pattern of CAN neurons. In C. elegans, CAN neurons move posteriorly from their birthplace in the head to positions near the middle of the embryo.
