Comparative genomics and community curation further improve gene annotations in the nematode Pristionchus pacificus

Abstract Background Nematode model organisms such as Caenorhabditis elegans and Pristionchus pacificus are powerful systems for studying the evolution of gene function at a mechanistic level. However, the identification of P. pacificus orthologs of candidate genes known from C. elegans is complicate...
