Large-scale phenotyping in a wild rhabditid nematode and C. elegans reveals differential neurobehavioral responses to a nanoscale pollutant and temperature.

Abstract excerpt

Environmental factors shape organismal health through complex interactions collectively referred to as the exposome. Yet, the interplay between chemical and non-chemical exposome factors remains poorly understood. Here, a dopaminergic reporter strain of Caenorhabditis elegans and a field isolated rhabditid nematode were used in a behavioral arena to assess natural variation in locomotory behavior in response to...
