Changing styles in C. elegans genetics.

Abstract excerpt

The past 30 years have taken the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans from obscurity, as a nondescript member of a large but unglamorous invertebrate phylum, to a position as one of the major model organisms. This year, it will acquire a particular celeberity as the owner of the first animal genome to be sequenced in its entirety. In this review we consider the ways in which genetical investigations of this species...
