The paper analyzes the genomic diversity of C. tropicalis, finding geographic correlation and hyper-divergent regions linked to environmental adaptation.

This study demonstrates that RHO1-2 meganuclease gene editing can arrest rod degeneration and restore retinal function in a pig model of P23H rhodopsin-induced retinitis pigmentosa.

The paper identifies natural variation in the irld gene family affecting starvation resistance in C. elegans using MIP-seq and genome-wide association.

This study evaluates genome-wide association mapping in C. elegans using simulations and a new pipeline, showing increased power with more strains and lower false discovery rates in recently selected populations.

The paper identifies three genomic regions in C. elegans associated with natural variation in macrocyclic lactone response, including two novel loci and one previously known locus.

The paper identifies a gene, sqst-5, associated with zinc resistance in C. elegans by analyzing genetic variation between strains with different zinc responses.

The paper identifies a single gene, scb-1, as a pleiotropic locus underlying variation in Caenorhabditis elegans responses to multiple chemotherapeutics.

The paper identifies QTL underlying toxin response variation in C. elegans and validates their contributions through experimental assays.
