The paper curates gene models in Pristionchus pacificus, identifying and correcting over 7,500 gene annotations through manual curation and new transcriptome data.

The paper investigates the adaptive benefits of transgenerational inheritance of a predatory mouth-form trait in nematodes, finding a fitness advantage in worms with this inherited trait.

This study shows that vitamin B12 from diet induces transgenerational inheritance of predatory behavior in nematodes through increased vitellogenin provisioning.

The paper shows that EBAX-1/ZSWIM8 destabilizes miRNAs, leading to transgenerational memory of a predatory trait in nematodes.
