Adults hermphrodites (n = 4–6) were allowed to lay eggs for 5–6 h. Progeny were placed at 25°C and scored visually 78 h after eggs were laid. These data are from one representative experiment. Experiments were performed at least twice.
Transgenic animals were marked with the rol-6 transgene.
Non-roll animals are largely not transgenic, although a small proportion may be mosaic for the extrachromosomal array.
These were “partial dauers.” They were lighter and moved more than true dauers.
This animal looked like an L2d larva, because it was darker than a normal L2 larva.
