Epistasis between Na+/K+-ATPase Substitutions May Influence Salinity Tolerance in Steinernema Entomopathogenic Nematodes
Perla Achi, Cullen McCarthy, Lanie Bavier…·Adler R. Dillman
This study investigates whether two amino acid substitutions in the Na+/K+-ATPase of Steinernema carpocapsae contribute to its salt tolerance compared to congeners, finding negative epistasis between the substitutions.
