Natural and experimental infection of Caenorhabditis nematodes by novel viruses related to nodaviruses.
An ideal model system to study antiviral immunity and host-pathogen co-evolution would combine a genetically tractable small animal with a virus capable of naturally infecting the host organism. The use of C. elegans as a model to define host-viral interactions has been limited by the lack of viruse...
