<i>C. elegans</i> hermaphrodites undergo semelparous reproductive death

2020-11-16

Ageing in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is unusual in terms of the severity and early onset of senescent pathology, particularly affecting organs involved in reproduction (Ezcurra et al., 2018; Garigan et al., 2002; Herndon et al., 2002).
