This project explores the inheritance of acquired traits in nematodes, specifically focusing on how small RNA molecules can transmit antiviral resistance across generations. It aims to uncover the mechanisms behind this transgenerational inheritance and its implications for genetics.
Inheritance of acquired traits is a topic of long-standing interest and controversy.
While some of the classic Lamarckian ideas have been dismissed, more recent observations suggest that certain characteristics acquired by an animal during its lifetime might be transmitted to the next generations.
Recently I described, for the first time in animals, a biological context in which acquired traits are inherited via small RNA molecules, which ignore the boundary between the soma and the germ line (…
