This study investigates DNA repair pathway expression in the bdelloid rotifer Adineta vaga after radiation exposure, showing delayed homologous recombination repair in germline nuclei and early NHEJ and BER in somatic tissues.

This study identifies a novel transgenerational DNA repair mechanism in the asexual bdelloid rotifer Adineta vaga that uses meiotic recombination to repair fragmented chromosomes across generations.

This study compares the transcriptomic responses of bdelloid rotifers to desiccation and ionizing radiation, finding shared and distinct molecular mechanisms.
