Microbes are potential key players in the evolution of life histories and aging in <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>
2022-02-27
Abstract excerpt
Microbes can have profound effects on host fitness and health and the appearance of late-onset diseases. Host-microbe interactions thus represent a major environmental context for healthy aging of the host and might also mediate trade-offs between life-history traits in the evolution of host senescence. Here, we have used the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans to study how host-microbe interactions may modulate the...
