Transcriptome resilience predicts thermotolerance in Caenorhabditis elegans
Abstract Background The detrimental effects of a short bout of stress can persist and potentially turn lethal, long after the return to normal conditions. Thermotolerance, which is the capacity of an organism to withstand relatively extreme temperatures, is influenced by the response during stress e...
