A new paper in the journal Development explores the role of male pheromones in accelerating the development of hermaphrodite larvae in Caenorhabditis elegans. The study shows that pheromone exposure during the larval stage helps coordinate behavior and development by modulating the timing of the transition to the next stage. The researchers aim to understand how social signals, particularly pheromones, affect development and physiology, and how the nervous system regulates development. They propose that similar patterns of accelerated development may be evident in other species with larval development. [Extracted from the article]
