My penultimate PhD paper is out in @eLife! We used MIP-seq to determine relative starvation resistance and sensitivity among a pool of 100 wild C. elegans strains, then used this data to identify several QTL... (1/5) elifesciences.org/articles/8…

Using population selection and sequencing to characterize natural variation of starvation resista...

A powerful sequencing approach is used to elucidate the genetic basis of a complex organismal trait, and members of the irld gene family that affect starvation resistance are identified.

Replying to @thegoodphyte
see the many studies in C. elegans GWAS by @ecandersen and colleagues, made "convincing" by subsequent NIL analysis and transgenic validation
