Starvation resistance in the nematode Pristionchus pacificus requires a conserved supplementary nuclear receptor

Tobias Theska, Tess Renahan, Ralf J. Sommer

This study functionally characterizes Ppa-NHR-10 in Pristionchus pacificus, showing it regulates starvation resistance through lipid catabolism rather than feeding-structure morphogenesis.

Feeding-structure morphogenesis in rhabditid and diplogastrid nematodes is not controlled by a conserved genetic module

Tobias Theska, Ralf J. Sommer

The paper investigates whether a genetic module controlling feeding-structure morphogenesis in diplogastrid nematodes is conserved in rhabditid nematodes, finding it is not.

Histone 4 lysine 5/12 acetylation provides a plasticity code with epigenetic memory of environmental exposure

Michael S. Werner, Tobias Loschko, Thomas D. King…·Ralf J. Sommer

The paper shows that histone 4 lysine 5/12 acetylation regulates developmental plasticity and epigenetic memory in nematodes by controlling switch gene expression during a critical environmental sensitivity window.
