Transgenerational Sterility of Piwi Mutants Represents a Dynamic Form of Adult Reproductive Diapause
Summary: Environmental stress can induce adult reproductive diapause, a state of developmental arrest that temporarily suspends reproduction. Deficiency for C. elegans Piwi protein PRG-1 results in strains that reproduce for many generations but then become sterile. We found that sterile-generation...
