The FLP-1 neuropeptide is involved in locomotion, mechanosensation, and reproduction. Strain RB2126 is reported to contain the flp-1(ok2811) mutation, a prospective null allele. Here we report that strain RB2126, in addition to flp-1(ok2811), also contains two additional background mutations. One of the mutations gives the animals a constitutive dauer phenotype (Daf-c), and complementation testing confirms that it is in the Daf-c gene daf-11. The second mutation is isolated based on the fact that it partially suppresses the elevated body curvature of flp-1(ok2811) mutants, but it remains uncloned. The updated genotype of RB2126 strain is flp-1(ok2811); daf-11(yak155); yak156.
