Massive programmed DNA elimination during embryogenesis in the trioecious nematode Auanema rhodense
2026-08-28
Abstract excerpt
In animals, the germline is usually set aside early in development and its genome is protected to ensure faithful transmission of genetic information to future generations. Genetic alterations in somatic cells are not inherited by progeny, and the somatic genome does not have to be protected from change in the same way. In some species, programmed DNA elimination (PDE) results in the directed loss of genetic mater...
