The significance of DAF-16 and its role in the phenotypic covariance of longevity, immunity and stress resistance in the Caenorhabditis nematodes
Ageing, immunity and stress tolerance are inherent characteristics of all organisms. In animals, these traits are regulated, at least in part, by forkhead transcription factors in response to upstream signals from the Insulin/Insulin–like growth factor signalling (IIS) pathway. In the nematode Caeno...
