The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans

C Kenyon

Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, University of California, San Francisco 94143.

In Caenorhabditis elegans patterns of cell division, differentiation, and morphogenesis can be observed with single-cell resolution in intact, living animals. Mechanisms that determine behaviors of individual cells during development are being dissected by means of genetic, cell biological, and molecular approaches.
