Since it was first described in 1900 by E. Maupas and chosen in the late 1960s by Sydney Brenner as a species for genetic study the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has come a long way. The worm has made innumerable contributions to biology including a deep understanding of the processes of organ development and programmed cell death. At the biennial international conference on C. elegans held in Los Angeles in June more than 2 000 researchers met to discuss their newest findings covering all of worm biology abstracts are available at http www.genetics-gsa.org genetics Celegans . Here we will highlight progress in the areas of functional genomics RNA interference RNAi and related phenomena and evolutionary studies. Large-scale approaches genomics and other omics The genome of C. elegans was the first metazoan genome to be sequenced and the worm is likely to be the first multicellular organism for which deletion mutations in all confirmed and predicted genes will be available.
