Natural variation in the Caenorhabditis elegans egg-laying circuit modulates an intergenerational fitness trade-off
Evolutionary transitions from egg laying (oviparity) to live birth (viviparity) are common across various taxa. Many species also exhibit genetic variation in egg-laying mode or display an intermediate mode with laid eggs containing embryos at various stages of development. Understanding the mechani...
