Abstract excerpt
Modern evolutionary biology requires integrative approaches that combine life history, population structure, ecology, and development. The nematode Pristionchus pacificus has been established as a model system in which these aspects can be studied in one organism. P. pacificus has well-developed genetic, genomic, and transgenic tools and its ecologic association with scarab beetles is well described. A recent...
