Molecular Strategies of the Caenorhabditis elegans Dauer Larva to Survive Extreme Desiccation
Figure 3
Major pathways involved in desiccation tolerance.
(A) Desiccation sensitivities of various mutants from (B-D) candidate pathways are presented in 4 categories. Genes from high FCC are highlighted according to Figure 1. The subcellular localizations of ROS defense enzymes are shown as c, cytosol; e, extracellular; m, mitochondrion; and p, peroxisome.
