- lumbar ganglia development variant
Any variation in the progression of the left and right lumbar ganglia which lie behind the pre-anal ganglion in the tail, in lateral positions over time from its initial formation to its mature form compared to control (Wormatlas).
- dorsal ganglion development variant
Any variation in the progression of the ganglion that lies dorsally beside the nerve ring in the head over time from its initial formation to its mature form compared to control. In C. elegans, It contains neuron cell bodies that send their neuronal processes into the ring and longitudinal nerves, but form no local neuropil separate from the nerve ring. The dorsal ganglion is in close contact with the dorsal hypodermal cord (Wormatlas).
- ventral ganglion development variant
Any variation in the progression of the ganglion which lies ventrally beside the nerve ring in the head, just anterior of the retrovesicular ganglion over time from its initial formation to its mature form compared to control (Wormatlas).
- retrovesicular ganglion development variant
Any variation in the progression of the ganglion which lies at the anterior limit of the ventral nerve cord, near the ventral ganglion and nerve ring in the head posterior to the excretory pore over time from its initial formation to its mature form compared to control (Wormatlas).
- neuron activation variant
Activity of the neuron varies from that observed for control animals or neurons. In C. elegans neuron activity is often assayed by observing calcium spikes.
- obsolete neuron physiology variant
OBSOLETE: Activity of the neuron varies from that observed for control animals or neurons. In C. elegans neuron activity is often assayed by observing calcium spikes.
- synaptic transmission variant
Any variation in the process of communication across a synapse between a neuron and a target cell (neuron, muscle, or secretory cell) compared to control animals.
- transmission of nerve impulse variant
Transmission of the signal along the neuron varies from control. This process includes the flow of information from the neuron cell body to the synapse and across to the postsynaptic cell.
- preanal ganglion development variant
Any variation in the progression of the ganglion which lies at the posterior limit of the ventral nerve cord in the tail over time from its initial formation to its mature form compared to control (Wormatlas).
