This study evaluates how different extraction methods and sequencing protocols affect nematode biodiversity metrics in soil samples.

This study shows that environmental and demographic variation additively reduce the repeatability of evolution in replicated experiments with Caenorhabditis elegans.

The paper maps eQTLs in a transgenic C. elegans RIL panel to identify genetic modifiers of alpha-synuclein aggregation and PD-related pathways.

The paper introduces reciprocal introgression line populations in C. elegans to study genetic interactions and complex trait architectures through QTL mapping and expression analysis.

This study identifies QTLs affecting body size and plasticity in C. elegans across different temperatures and developmental stages.

The paper examines genetic variation in the Intracellular Pathogen Response (IPR) in C. elegans, finding balancing selection in key regulators and showing haplotype-specific antiviral defense.

The paper identifies two loci on chromosome IV in C. elegans associated with OrV susceptibility, with a single nucleotide polymorphism in cul-6 contributing to the difference between strains.

The paper uses a multi-parental recombinant inbred line population in C. elegans to study gene expression variation and identifies eQTLs and trans-bands affecting gene expression.

This study maps eQTL in C. elegans RILs across environments, showing higher reproducibility of local eQTL and environmental effects on eQTL micro-architecture.

The paper measures transcriptional resilience to heat stress in C. elegans and finds it predicts long-term thermotolerance.

This study develops a multi-parent recombinant inbred line population of C. elegans to improve QTL mapping resolution and identify novel QTLs for life-history traits.

This study examines gene expression changes in C. elegans during heat stress, identifying a critical time window where gene expression shifts and phenotypic damage becomes irreversible.

The paper identifies eQTLs in C. elegans that modulate Ras/MAPK signaling, revealing genetic modifiers that are not detectable in single genetic backgrounds.

The paper investigates how trans regulatory eQTL contribute to cryptic genetic variation in C. elegans under heat stress and recovery conditions.
