Introduction to Caenorhabditis elegans, including value to biology, biotechnology, medicine; and links to major bioinformatics resources and search engines.
Information from Wikipedia on this free-living nematode, often known as the microworm, that is used by aquarists and fish keepers as a food for fish fry.
Research interests are focused on the modulation of the cell cycle throughout development. Since the completion of the Caenorhabditis elegans genome sequencing project, this nematode makes an ideal subject for study.
Information on the description, life cycle, biology, distribution, hosts, dispersal and bionomics of this species, which can be used as a biological control.
