zig-7 encodes a predicted secreted protein that is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily of proteins; loss of zig-7 activity via RNAi has been reported to result in aldicarb resistance; a zig-7::gfp reporter fusion is expressed in body wall muscle.
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
