Desiccation and oxidative stress: investigating the genetic contributions to resistance and resilience in bdelloid rotifers.
Bdelloid rotifers are animals able to withstand the harsh oxidizing conditions of desiccation at any stage of their life, demonstrating remarkable resiliency and resistance to the damage. Resiliency is defined here as damage followed by recovery, while resistance is damage prevention. Desiccating...
