<i>Pseudomonas fluorescens 15</i> small RNA Pfs1 mediates transgenerational epigenetic inheritance of pathogen avoidance in <i>C. elegans</i> through the Ephrin receptor VAB-1
2024-05-23
Abstract excerpt
C. elegans are exposed to a variety of pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacteria species in their natural environment. Correspondingly, C. elegans has evolved an ability to discern between nutritive and infectious bacterial food sources. Here we show that C. elegans can learn to avoid the pathogenic bacteria Pseudomonas fluorescens 15 (PF15), and that this learned avoidance behavior is passed on to progeny for fou...
