The great genetic swap: Rethinking essentiality in fruit fly reproduction
The word “essential” carries weight in genetics: lose the gene, lose the function. Luke Arnce, Jaclyn Bubnell, and Charles Aquadro challenge this intuition in a recent focused comparative study of germline stem-cell (GSC) biology across Drosophila species in G3:Genes|Genomes|Genetics. They tested the famed bag-of-marbles (bam) gene for its conserved function as a switch for daughter…

Science & PublishingHold the salt: Study shows standard worm food NaCl levels accelerate aging
A new study in GENETICS has a “circuitous” origin story, according to equal investigator Brian M. Egan. When Egan showed Kerry Kornfeld his inconclusive Caenorhabditis elegans data on how varying concentrations of sodium chloride (NaCl) affect the anti-aging activity of the blood pressure drug captopril, Kornfeld noticed an unexpected difference in the controls. Since C.…
