Evolutionary genetics of aging in Daphnia.

Zhurnal obshchei biologii - 1 Jan 2000

Iampolskiĭ L I, Galimov Ia R

Abstract excerpt

Evolutionary theory of aging stipulates that aging is inevitable consequence of low effectiveness of natural selection acting on traits expressed late in the life span of the organisms. Two main hypotheses exist: the neutralist mutation-accumulation theory and selectionist antagonistic pleiotropy theory. Both theories predict the increase of genetic variance with age; the antagonistic pleiotropy theory also...
