A general scheme for working with C. elegans sterility mutants. Once the general class of mutant is determined (spe or egg) by crossing a new sterile hermaphrodite to wild-type males, one can begin to assess whether the gene is specifically for fertilization, or more generally for gamete development. See text for information regarding specific tests.
