Long-lived genotypes for studies of life extension in Drosophila melanogaster.

Mechanisms of ageing and development - 1 May 2012

Mockett Robin J, Cockrell Jordan Ciza, Puri Shruti, Nguyen Mye, Nisa Mehran

Abstract excerpt

Numerous single-gene mutations obtained by insertion of P elements in white (w) genetic backgrounds have been reported to extend the life span of Drosophila melanogaster, but life extension is sometimes observed only in relatively short-lived backgrounds. The objective of this study was to develop long- and short-lived, high and low fertility backgrounds in which to test the reproducibility and possible...
