Context:
Studies in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans are beginning to show not noly the diversity of these strategies, but also the genetic and genomic mechanisms mediating the response.
@oristarA,
Ive always heard it called Sydney's worm , after the guy who won the Nobel prize for finding the root systems and many uses of C elegans.
C elegans is ok too but Sydneys worm has a nice friendly ring to it.
Well, gentlemen.
What I would like to know is the pronunciation of Caenorhabditis .
@oristarA,
Caenorhabditis elegans (pronounced /
ˌsiːnɵræbˈdaɪtɪs ˈɛlɪɡænz/).
Check the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) for English.
You can also listen to the pronunciation
here
You mean it's not a mushrrom?

@Sglass,
Nemo timet morsum, dentes quia non habet ullos...
