Molecular Requirements for <i>C. elegans</i> Transgenerational Epigenetic Inheritance of Pathogen Avoidance

2025-01-24

Abstract excerpt

C. elegans’ major food source is bacteria, and worms are naturally attracted to many bacterial species, including pathogenic Pseudomonas ; in fact, worms prefer PA14 as well as wild bacteria over the lab E. coli strain (OP50) standardly used in the laboratory setting. Many labs have shown that despite this natural attraction to PA14, prior exposure to PA14 causes the worms to instead avoid PA14. This behavioral...
