Proton Microbeam Targeted Irradiation of the Gonad Primordium Region Induces Developmental Alterations Associated with Heat Shock Responses and Cuticle Defense in <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>

We describe a methodology to manipulate <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> (<i>C. elegans</i>) and irradiate the stem progenitor gonad region using three MeV protons at a specific developmental stage (L1). The consequences of the targeted irradiation were first investigated by con...
