| Description | Lower numbers of male progeny occur in the population compared to control populations. In C. elegans, the low incidence of males phenotype in a self-fertilizing hermaphrodite population is a result of an decrease in X chromosome nondisjunction. |

| WBPhenotype:0001664 | X chromosome nondisjunction | The frequency of sex chromosome segregation is perturbed, resulting in the production of exceptional gametes (e.g. ova or sperm) and populations with a sex ratio altered from the rate of 1:500 as observed for control populations. |
