Non-aging despite high mutation rate – genomic insights into the evolution of <i>Hydra</i>

2022-05-20

Abstract excerpt

Hydra is a genus of freshwater polyps with remarkable regeneration abilities and a non-senescent phenotype under laboratory conditions. Thus, this animal is particularly interesting for aging research. Here, we gained insights into Hydra’s recent genetic evolution by genome sequencing of single cells and whole individuals. Despite its extreme longevity, Hydra does not show a lower somatic mutation rate than huma...
