This paper tests whether Caenorhabditis elegans follows the Marginal Value Theorem in patchy environments, finding that it matches predictions through both behavioral adaptation and passive environmental interactions.

The paper extends the Marginal Value Theorem to simple organisms with limited sensory abilities, showing that adjusting feeding speed based on environmental average feeding rates improves foraging efficiency.

Cellects quantifies cell expansion, motion, and morphology from 2D image data and time-lapse sequences, providing standardized outputs for statistical analysis.

This study shows that Caenorhabditis elegans can reverse attraction to ascaroside pheromones through associative learning involving food deprivation.
