Desiccation survival in an Antarctic nematode: molecular analysis using expressed sequenced tags
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Nematodes are the dominant soil animals in Antarctic Dry Valleys and are capable of surviving desiccation and freezing in an anhydrobiotic state. Genes induced by desiccation stress have been successfully enumerated in nematodes; how...
