Abstract excerpt
In Caenorhabditis elegans, mutants in osmotic avoidance behaviour (osm), which fail to avoid high concentrations of salts and sugars, have been previously identified. These osm mutants are also defective in dauer larva formation, and fail to take up fluorescein dye in six pairs of amphid neurones (ADF, ADL, ASH, ASI, ASJ, and ASK) and two pairs of phasmid neurones. Analysis of the FITC dye uptake by osm-3 mutants...
