Behavioral degradation under mutation accumulation in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Genetics - 1 Jun 2005

Ajie Beverly C, Estes Suzanne, Lynch Michael, Phillips Patrick C

Abstract excerpt

Spontaneous mutations play a fundamental role in the maintenance of genetic variation in natural populations, the nature of inbreeding depression, the evolution of sexual reproduction, and the conservation of endangered species. Using long-term mutation-accumulation lines of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, we estimate the rate and magnitude of mutational effects for a suite of behaviors characterizing...
