Nematodes [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent 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

Nematode chromosomes

open access: yesGenetics, 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 ...

Nematode-Trapping Fungi Eavesdrop on Nematode Pheromones [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2013
The recognition of molecular patterns associated with specific pathogens or food sources is fundamental to ecology and plays a major role in the evolution of predator-prey relationships. Recent studies showed that nematodes produce an evolutionarily highly conserved family of small molecules, the ascarosides, which serve essential functions in ...
