Abstract excerpt
We have analyzed a region of approximately 5.4 million base pairs for mutations, which under standard laboratory conditions result in developmental arrest, sterility, or maternal-effect lethality in Caenorhabditis elegans. Lethal mutations were isolated, maintained, and genetically manipulated as homozygotes using sDp2--a duplication of the left half of chromosome I. All of the lethals and rearrangements used in...
