Wild-type <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> Isolates Exhibit Distinct Gene Expression Profiles in Response to Microbial Infection

2021-10-17

Abstract excerpt

The soil-dwelling nematode Caenorhabditis elegans serves as a model system to study innate immunity against microbial pathogens. C. elegans have been collected from around the world, where they, presumably, adapted to regional microbial ecologies. Here we use survival assays and RNA- sequencing to better understand how two isolates from disparate climates respond to pathogenic bacteria. We found that, relative t...
