WBPhenotype:0000745
|
transposon silencing variant
|
Animals exhibit variations in the activity of endogenous transposons compared to control. In C. elegans transposon activity is often measured by the rate of reversion of mutations induced by transposon insertions. |
|
WBPhenotype:0000744
|
transgene induced cosuppression variant
|
Animals exhibit variations in the silencing of endogenous genes after introduction of repetitive exogenous cognate DNA compared to control. |
|
WBPhenotype:0001593
|
transgene silencing variant
|
Animals exhibit variations in the homology-dependent transcriptional level silencing of the expression of exogenous DNA that has been introduced into the organism, compared to control. In C. elegans this silencing occurs only in the germline. |
|
WBPhenotype:0002064
|
maintenance of gene silencing defective
|
Animals express genes that had been targeted for heritable silencing in previous generations. |
