Caenorhabditis elegans is a useful model for anthelmintic discovery.Parasitic nematodes infect one quarter of the world's population and impact all humans through widespread infection of crops and livestock.  Here, we present our screen of 67,012 compounds to identify those that kill the non-parasitic nematode Caenorhabditis elegans.

Genetic screens of 19 million C. elegans mutants reveal those nematicides for which the generation of resistance is and is not likely.  This work establishes C. elegans as an effective and cost-efficient model system for anthelmintic discovery.
