The nematodes exhibit a variety of behaviors with their 302 neurons," Noma said. C. elegans shares many genes and mechanisms with humans. So, we thought that the cause of the decline in brain ...

Second, they are not toxic to the nematode, increasing the likelihood that they are safe for eukaryotic organisms such as humans. Third, they interact with the biological matrices of the dead ...

and a nematode's brain has about 302 neurons. A human brain has 86 billion, not to mention the 10,000 or so connections each neuron makes with other neurons. Our current brain-scanning tech ...

The root-knot nematode (RKN), specifically the southern root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita), is a yield-limiting nematode present in many Delaware fields. It is particularly damaging to soybean ...
