Current Biology, 2013 SummaryTo today’s experimental biologists, the best known nematode is Caenorhabditis elegans, one of the major model organisms for genetic and biomedical research, the first metazoan with a sequenced genome and a key partner in the winning of three Nobel prizes — for the discoveries of programmed cell death and RNA interference, and for the development

Entomopathogenic nematodes [PDF]
Current Biology, 2012 What are entomopathogenic nematodes? Nematodes seem to have evolved to occupy nearly every niche imaginable, including a wide diversity of parasitic niches. Among the vast variety of parasitic nematodes, some have evolved an association with insect-pathogenic bacteria. Together the bacteria and nematode are a lethal duo.

Genetics, 2022 AbstractThe nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has shed light on many aspects of eukaryotic biology, including genetics, development, cell biology, and genomics. A major factor in the success of C. elegans as a model organism has been the availability, since the late 1990s, of an essentially gap-free and well-annotated nuclear genome sequence, divided ...

The Nematodes of the Thames [PDF]
Nature, 1911 IN a recent letter to NATURE on the “oze of the Thames,” I alluded to the number of nematodes which I had observed. I found as I continued my researches at least three different species were present. I have since been working on some ooze from near the Tower Bridge, and again find three different species, some of which are quite distinct from the forms

, 2020 Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) represent an important constraint for plant production worldwide. They are widely distributed around the world and are able to parasitize every plant species. Furthermore, the current restrictions on the use of chemical nematicides have increased the problems caused by PPNs, irrespec-tive of the production system ...

The role of bacteria in pine wilt disease: insights from microbiome analysis. [PDF]
, 2018 Pine Wilt Disease (PWD) has a significant impact on Eurasia pine forests. The microbiome of the nematode (the primary cause of the disease), its insect vector, and the host tree may be relevant for the disease mechanism.
