Phylogeny of the nematode genus Pristionchusand implications for biodiversity, biogeography and the evolution of hermaphroditism (2007)

Mayer, Werner E, Herrmann, Matthias, Sommer, Ralf J

Abstract Background The nematode Pristionchus pacificus has originally been developed as a satellite organism for comparison to Caenorhabditis elegans . A 10X coverage of the whole genome of P....

The nematode Pristionchus pacificus (Nematoda: Diplogastridae) is associated with the oriental beetle Exomala orientalis (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) in Japan (2007)

Herrmann, Matthias, Mayer, Werner, Hong, Ray, Kienle, Simone, Minasaki, Ruji, Sommer, Ralf

Pristionchus pacificus has been developed as a nematode satellite organism in evolutionary developmental biology. Detailed studies of vulva development revealed multiple differences in genetic and...

Distinct patterns of genetic variation in Pristionchus pacificus and Caenorhabditis elegans, two partially selfing nematodes with cosmopolitan distribution. (2007)

Zauner, Hans, Mayer, Werner, Herrmann, Matthias, Weller, Andreas, Erwig, Mirja, Sommer, Ralf

Hermaphroditism has evolved several times independently in nematodes. The model organism Caenorhabditis elegans and Pristionchus pacificus are self-fertile hermaphrodites with rare facultative males....

Nematodes of the genus Pristionchus are closely associated with scarab beetles and the Colorado potato beetle in Western Europe. (2006)

Herrmann, Matthias, Mayer, Werner, Sommer, Ralf

Evolutionary developmental biology examines how changes in developmental programmes give rise to developmental and, ultimately, morphological novelty. To this end, comparisons of related but distinct...

Aktuelle Ergebnisse zur Flugbrandresistenz von Nackthafer (2005)

Herrmann, Dr. Matthias, Leithold, B.

This report describes the resistance of some naked oats to Ustilago avenae. For inoculation a vacuum-aided method was used. Kernels were inoculated with a mixture of two German isolates as well as...
