Scientists simply find something of us that most of us may have been wrong: it is also called roundworms – the love of climbing over each other to form powerful, romantic towers.
States in Germany clarify their availability in the new research on Thursday for the current biology. They found and found several types of nematode, living in the wild, organized in these organism towers – something that happens only in the lab. The findings also show that the smaller worms use these structures increase in animals or things that can bring them elsewhere, even if there are many other questions about this practice.
According to the Lior Study All Annrena Ding, researcher in the Max Planc Institute of Animal Animal, the towers is not confidential between the Worm science community. But the character was reaching mythical state, because no one ever wrote it in wild opportunities. That did not mean that worms were only forced to build towers under the lab conditions, which may be estimated the help of any practical research.
“It’s just a thing that ever ding jumped on me.
Eventually, it took Ding’s colleagues, especially the writer Ryan Greekan author, obtaining and recording Nobosorm Tower Tower Conditions in the nearest regions of Konstanz (one of three locations where the center is based). When the towers were found, researchers brought some of labs to continue reading. They are also encouraged and learned to create the construction of the lab species Caenorhabbitis Eleansthe type used for regular research.
“There is important discovery to, ‘Yes, they are.’ But the second detection is that we actually make sure that towers can scatter people at the same time, “Ding said. “This [has] It is always considered the scattered behavior, but no one confirmed. “
The investigators saw larvaison in the towers and entered animals like the passing fruits, for example, or use them as the type of crossing. In addition, towers appeared carefully respond to the restoration such as touch. Fruits that contain with the loads of nematode, but the towers itself was always made in one form at a time. All of this suggests that these organisms should be seen as temporary times “height,” such as slime fungi or ants.
Although the ding and his team hope and expect to find worms in nature, they marveled in other ways.
The investigators did not receive evidence of lab dilemma that took different roles within the tower, one. The worms were not equally simple, and no one seemed to find the advantage of others in the head of the tower (which means part that is very beneficial in this behavior). These larvae are a Clonal, however, that is the meaning of genetically. And it is possible that things are not limited to ruins related to the wild.
“These are the practical directions trying to follow now, because not everyone is distributing it. So who has shown? Are they cheating?” Said ding.
There are some questions that will be answered on these towers. The team team test has shown that C. Elegans Worms were able to build towers throughout their lives, for example, including sickness. Fast research suggested this behavior only being made by dauer embryos – a lot of life incident some caterpillars that cherish tropical worms. At the same time, the natural towers they received where did it be It is done only on the Dauer’s mirror, so maybe there is something else that makes the behavior more common at that stage of life.
This study is the beginning of the ding and his team, because they plan to follow these secretars continuously. But Ding hopes that his team’s work can make an important lesson, especially for some investigators. You observe such larvae C. The Challenge They are often converted to the lab for scientists to track how certain behaviors apply to the cell level. But he shows that there is also much more sought to learn by the real world.
“What I’m trying to do is real known but teach them about a more natural opinion. But that is true of the animal from a natural and environmental animal.” He said. “At least for me, this is an important lesson when as a larvae, I can publish a study without using a single mutant and just looking at behavior, and that it is very fun.”
Myself, I’m just happy that I’ve had a horrible trivia that shocks to bring my next party.
