C. briggsae

Model Organism: Worms Scientific Discussion

Hi there,

Does anyone have any information on the initial isolation of the C. briggsae strains AF16 and HK104? When it’s isolated and when it’s frozen?

Best,
Ethan

A little more digging might find more information online elsewhere, or someone might pipe up with something they know or recall hearing, but what’s at the CGC is:

AF16: See WBG 7(1) 48. Isolated from soil in Ahmedabad, India. Previously called C. briggsae G16.

HK104: C. briggsae wild type strain collected from Okayama, Japan.

You could also contact the people responsible for isolating and submitting those strains and ask for more information.
