Neural regulation of thermotaxis in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Nature - 27 Jul 1995

Mori I, Ohshima Y

Abstract excerpt

Thermal stimulus is an important environmental factor influencing animal behaviour. However, the mechanisms underlying thermosensation and thermal adaptation are poorly understood. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans can sense a range of environmental temperatures and migrate towards the cultivation temperature on a thermal gradient. This modifiable thermotactic response provides an ideal system for studying the...
