Biology is the root of variability: cautionary tales in Caenorhabditis elegans biology.

Abstract

Reproducibility is critical for the standardization, interpretation, and progression of research. However, many factors increase variability and reduce reproducibility. In Caenorhabditis elegans research, there are many possible causes of variability that may explain why experimental outcomes sometimes differ between laboratories and between experiments. Factors contributing to experimental variability include the genetic background of both C. …
