| Abstract: | Research on AOX in nematodes is scarce. Within our research group, we aim to
confirm the existence of alternative oxidase in nematodes and explore its
involvement in the animal’s metabolism related to its lifestyle (including plant
attacks). Here we present our hypothesis that the presence of this gene family in
nematodes is a function of their lifestyle.Validation of a role of AOX in nematode
parasitism might be useful in support of a strategy development against nematode
attacks through bio-protection. |
