Evolutionary genetics of lifespan and mortality rates in two populations of the seed beetle, Callosobruchus maculatus.

Heredity - 1 Mar 2004

Fox C W, Bush M L, Roff D A, Wallin W G

Abstract excerpt

The age at which individuals die varies substantially within and between species, but we still have little understanding of why there is such variation in life expectancy. We examined sex-specific and genetic variation in adult lifespan and the shape of mortality curves both within and between tw...
