The discovery, published this week in the peer-reviewed journal PLOS Genetics, offers new insight into how the worms, also known as nematodes, can survive in extreme conditions for extraordinarily long periods of time
Scientists have successfully revived roundworms that were in the dormant stage for 46,000 years in the Siberian permafrost. They were discovered in 2018
The roundworm, of a previously unknown species, survived 40 meters below the surface in the Siberian permafrost in a dormant state known as cryptobiosis.
This remarkable finding offers a glimpse into the ancient history and survival mechanisms of these tiny yet resilient organisms.
