Insights Into the Hypometabolic Stage Caused by Prolonged Starvation in L4-Adult Caenorhabditis elegans Hermaphrodites
Animals alter their reproductive cycles in response to changing nutritional conditions, to ensure that offspring production only occurs under favorable circumstances. These adaptive strategies include reversible hypometabolic states of dormancy such as “arrest” and “diapause.” The free-living nemato...
