Nematodes: Phylogenetics, Diversity, Genomics
The Blaxter lab has a core focus on the diversity, phylogenetics and genomics of nematodes (or roundworms).
| Nematode Genomics |
Genome sequencing and expressed sequence tag sequencing from diverse nematode species, and analyses of their genomes |
|
| Nematode Diversity |
DNA barcoding of environmental samples to identify nematode taxa |
|
| Nematode Population Genetics |
a website offering access to tools and methods for population genetic analysis of nematode species |
|
| Nematode Phylogenetics |
Using molecular data to analyse and illuminate the evolutionary biology of nematodes. |

...other interesting things...
The parasitic nematode Trichuris muris.
T. muris is a gut parasite of mice, and is used as a research model for the human-parasitic T. trichiura. See NEMBASE3 for analyses of ESTs from this parasite and many other nematodes.
