Are functional and demographic senescence genetically independent?

Experimental gerontology - 1 Nov 2006

Burger Joep M S, Promislow Daniel E L

Abstract excerpt

Biogerontology has traditionally focused on demographic senescence by searching for environmental manipulations and genes that extend life span. Relatively little is known about age-specific changes in functional traits and how demographic and functional senescence are genetically (co)regulated. To determine whether functional and demographic senescence have a similar genetic basis, we measured genotypic...
