191615 G5ECT8 HM02_CAEEL Homeobox protein ceh-2 DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE Mutants lacking the homeobox domain are viable and fertile but proliferate slightly more slowly than wild-type due to retarded larval development and reduced brood size. About 20% appear starved as they are shorter, thinner and paler at all stages with severely affected adults bearing only a few eggs. M3 neuron activity is decreased. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12810585}.
