Abstract

The dauer larva of Caenorhabditis elegans is a developmentally arrested stage induced by starvation or overcrowding. Mutant genes controlling the ability to form dauer larvae interact in a way which allows them to be ordered in a pathway. Mutant phenotypes suggest that the pathway corresponds to neural processing of environmental stimuli.

摘要

秀丽隐杆线虫的 dauer 幼虫是由饥饿或过度拥挤诱导的发育停滞阶段。控制形成 dauer 幼虫能力的突变基因以一种允许它们在一条途径中排序的方式相互作用。突变表型表明该途径对应于环境刺激的神经处理。
