- 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).
- fewer neurons
Animals exhibit fewer neurons compared to control animals.
- extra neuron
Animals produce an excess number of neurons compared to controls.
- aberrant posteriorly-directed neurite
Any neurite that is extended towards the posterior of the animal from neurons that in wild-type animals make only anterior projections (e.g. D-type neurons in C. elegans).
- CAN cell migration variant
Variation in the migration pattern of CAN neurons. In C. elegans, CAN neurons move posteriorly from their birthplace in the head to positions near the middle of the embryo.
