Identification and characterization of a skin microbiome on <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> suggests environmental microbes confer cuticle protection

2024-02-21

Abstract excerpt

In the wild, C. elegans are emersed in environments teeming with a veritable menagerie of microorganisms. The C. elegans cuticular surface serves as a barrier and first point of contact with this microbial milieux. Here, we identify microbes from C. elegans natural habitats that associate with its cuticle, constituting a simple ‘skin microbiome’. We rear our animals on a modified CeMbio, mCeMbio, a consortium o...
