Independent Validation of Transgenerational Inheritance of Learned Pathogen Avoidance in <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>

2025-04-08

Abstract excerpt

Transgenerational inheritance of learned behaviors remains a controversial topic in biology. The Murphy lab previously demonstrated that C. elegans exposed to pathogenic Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA14) not only learn to avoid this bacterium but also transmit this avoidance behavior to untrained offspring. A recent study has challenged these findings, questioning the robustness of this phenomenon. Here, we independ...
