The genome of a subterrestrial nematode reveals adaptations to heat
The nematode Halicephalobus mephisto has been found more than 1 km underground and can tolerate high heat and low oxygen. Here Weinstein et al. report the genome and transcriptome of H. mephisto and identify genomic innovations that likely are responsible for its tolerance to heat.
