Divergent evolution of arrested development in the dauer stage of Caenorhabditis elegans and the infective stage of Heterodera glycines

Axel A Elling, Makedonka Mitreva, Justin Recknor, Xiaowu Gai, John Martin, Thomas R Maier, Jeffrey P McDermott, Tarek Hewezi, David McK Bird, Eric L Davis, Richard S Hussey, Dan Nettleton, James P McCarter, Thomas J Baum Genome Biology 2007, 8:R211 (5 October 2007)

The generation and analysis of over 20,000 ESTs allowed the identification and expression profiling of 6,860 predicted genes in the nematode Heterodera glycines. This revealed that gene expression patterns in the dauer stage of Caenorhabditis elegans are not conserved in H. glycines.

Signal sequence analysis of expressed sequence tags from the nematode Nippostrongylus brasiliensis and the evolution of secreted proteins in parasites

Yvonne M Harcus, John Parkinson, Cecilia Fernández, Jennifer Daub, Murray E Selkirk, Mark L Blaxter, Rick M Maizels Genome Biology 2004, 5:R39 (18 May 2004)

Analysis of secreted proteins indicate that they may be undergoing accelerated evolution, either because of relaxed functional constraints, or in response to stronger selective pressure from host immunity.

Horizontally transferred genes in plant-parasitic nematodes: a high-throughput genomic approach

Elizabeth H Scholl, Jeffrey L Thorne, James P McCarter, David Mck Bird Genome Biology 2003, 4:R39 (19 May 2003)

A method for a high-throughput genome screening for horizontally acquired genes is presented, and is illustrated using EST data from three species of root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne species.
