Natural variation in the Caenorhabditis elegans egg-laying circuit modulates an intergenerational fitness trade-off

L. Mignerot, C. Gimond, L. Bolelli, C. Bouleau, A. Sandjak, T. Boulin, C. Braendle

This study examines natural variation in egg retention in C. elegans, showing it affects maternal fitness and offspring survival, with trade-offs between reproductive success and environmental protection.

Widespread sex ratio polymorphism in Caenorhabditis nematodes

Y. Huang, Y.-H. Lo, J.-C. Hsu, T. S. Le, F.-J. Yang, T. Chang, C. Braendle, J. Wang

The paper examines sex ratio polymorphism across 23 Caenorhabditis nematode species, finding that 12 species show strain-level variation, and challenges the sperm competition model as the sole explanation for biased sex ratios.

Selfing is the safest sex for Caenorhabditis tropicalis

L. M. Noble, J. Yuen, L. Stevens, N. Moya, R. S. Persaud, M. A. Moscatelli, J. L. Jackson, G. Zhang, R. Chitrakar, R. Baugh, C. Braendle, E. C. Andersen, H. S. Seidel, M. V. Rockman

This study investigates the mating system of C. tropicalis, finding that selfing reduces outbreeding depression caused by gene drive elements.

Balancing selection maintains hyper-divergent haplotypes in C. elegans

D. Lee, S. Zdraljevic, L. Stevens, Y. Wang, R. E. Tanny, T. A. Crombie, D. E. Cook, A. K. Webster, R. Chirakar, L. R. Baugh, M. Sterken, C. Braendle, M.-A. Felix, M. Rockman, E. C. Andersen

The paper shows that balancing selection maintains genetic diversity in hyper-divergent regions of C. elegans, enabling adaptation despite selfing.

A single nucleotide change underlies the genetic assimilation of a plastic trait

P. Vigne, C. Gimond, C. Ferrari, A. Vielle, J. Hallin, A. Pino-Querido, S. El Mouridi, C. Frokjaer-Jensen, T. Boulin, H. Teotonio, C. Braendle

The paper identifies a single amino acid change in kcnl-1 that causes constitutive matricidal hatching in C. elegans, demonstrating genetic assimilation of an environmentally sensitive trait.

Selection and gene flow shape niche-associated copy-number variation of pheromone receptor genes

D. Lee, S. Zdraljevic, D. E. Cook, L. Frezal, J.-C. Hsu, M. G. Sterken, J. A. G. Riksen, J. Wang, J. E. Kammenga, C. Braendle, M.-A. Felix, F. C. Schroeder, E. C. Andersen

The paper shows that copy-number variation of pheromone receptor genes in C. elegans is shaped by selection and gene flow, contributing to differences in pheromone responses across habitats.

Evolution of sperm competition: Natural variation and genetic determinants of Caenorhabditis elegans sperm size

C. Gimond, A. Vielle, N. Silva Soares, S. Zdraljevic, P. McGrath, E. Andersen, C. Braendle

The paper investigates natural variation in sperm size among C. elegans strains and identifies genetic factors, particularly nurf-1, influencing male sperm size and competitive ability.
