Abstract
The advantages of using Caenorhabditis elegans in introductory genetics courses will be demonstrated in this exercise in which an "unknown" visible mutation will be assigned to a linkage group and mapped relative to known markers. The nematode can be cultured easily, has a short generation time, reproduces either as self-fertilizing hermaphrodites or in outcrosses yields large numbers of progeny, and has a simple genome.
