Asymmetric cell division is an essential process of development. The process and its regulation have been studied extensively in the Caenorhabditis elegans embryo. Asymmetric division of the single-cell embryo is a conserved process in nematode species, however, the cellular features leading up to division are surprisingly variable. During my PhD, I aimed to study these differences by using two non-C. elegans embryos: Diploscapter pachys and Pristionchus pacificus. D. pachys is the closest parthenogenetic relative to C. elegans. Since the polarity cue in C. elegans is brought by the sperm, how polarity is triggered in D. pachys remains unknown. My results show that the nucleus inhabits principally the hemisphere of the D. pachys embryo that...
