3 Phenotype

Identifier	Name	Description
WBPhenotype:0000154	reduced brood size	The characteristic number of offspring produced is lower compared to that of control animals.
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:0001175	high incidence male progeny	Higher numbers of male progeny occur in the population compared to control populations. In C. elegans, the high incidence of males phenotype in a self-fertilizing hermaphrodite population is a result of an increase in X chromosome nondisjunction.
