Investigating the role of a JNK-like MAP kinase signaling in regulating dauer developmental arrest in Caenorhabditis elegans
Many metazoans have the ability to respond to stressful growth environments by arresting in a diapause state. The young larvae of nematode Caenorhabditis elegans undergo drastic anatomic and metabolic remodeling to enter a developmental diapause called dauer in response to crowding, diminished food...
