Novel infection by Mucor hiemalis kills Caenorhabditis hosts through intestinal perforation

Infection and Immunity
The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has emerged as a popular model system to investigate cell biology and host-pathogen interactions. Presently, C. elegans is studied as a natural host of intracellular pathogens such as microsporidia and Orsay virus ...

Data in support of genome-wide identification of lineage-specific genes within Caenorhabditis elegans

Data in Brief, 2015
Two sets of LSGs were identified using BLAST: Caenorhabditis elegans species-specific genes (SSGs, 1423), and Caenorhabditis genus-specific genes (GSGs, 4539).

Specific expression of channelrhodopsin-2 in single neurons of Caenorhabditis elegans

, 2012
Optogenetic approaches using light-activated proteins like Channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) enable investigating the function of populations of neurons in live Caenorhabditis elegans (and other) animals, as ChR2 expression can be targeted to these cells using ...

Functional modulation of IFT kinesins extends the sensory repertoire of ciliated neurons in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]

, 2006
The diversity of sensory cilia on Caenorhabditis elegans neurons allows the animal to detect a variety of sensory stimuli. Sensory cilia are assembled by intraflagellar transport (IFT) kinesins, which transport ciliary precursors, bound to IFT particles,

The compact genome of Caenorhabditis niphades n. sp., isolated from a wood-boring weevil, Niphades variegatus

BMC Genomics, 2022
Background The first metazoan genome sequenced, that of Caenorhabditis elegans, has motivated animal genome evolution studies. To date > 50 species from the genus Caenorhabditis have been sequenced, allowing research on genome variation.
