Difference between Caenorhabditis elegans and Dauer larva

Caenorhabditis elegans vs. Dauer larva

Caenorhabditis elegans is a free-living (not parasitic), transparent nematode (roundworm), about 1 mm in length, that lives in temperate soil environments. Dauer (German "die dauer", "the enduring", from A.G. Fuchs (1937) Neue parasitische und halbparasitischa Nematoden bei Borkenkäfern und einige andere Nematoden) describes an alternative developmental stage of nematode worms, particularly rhabditids including Caenorhabditis elegans, whereby the larva goes into a type of stasis and can survive harsh conditions.

Similarities between Caenorhabditis elegans and Dauer larva

Caenorhabditis elegans and Dauer larva have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Ecdysis, Germline, Larva, Nematode, Parasitism, Rhabditidae, Transcription factor.

Ecdysis

Ecdysis is the moulting of the cuticle in many invertebrates of the clade Ecdysozoa.

Germline

In biology and genetics, the germline in a multicellular organism is the population of its bodily cells that are so differentiated or segregated that in the usual processes of reproduction they may pass on their genetic material to the progeny.

Larva

A larva (plural: larvae) is a distinct juvenile form many animals undergo before metamorphosis into adults.

Nematode

The nematodes or roundworms constitute the phylum Nematoda (also called Nemathelminthes).

Parasitism

In evolutionary biology, parasitism is a relationship between species, where one organism, the parasite, lives on or in another organism, the host, causing it some harm, and is adapted structurally to this way of life.

Rhabditidae

The Rhabditidae are a family of nematodes which includes the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans.

Transcription factor

In molecular biology, a transcription factor (TF) (or sequence-specific DNA-binding factor) is a protein that controls the rate of transcription of genetic information from DNA to messenger RNA, by binding to a specific DNA sequence.
