Sex-specific lifespan and its evolution in nematodes.

Seminars in cell & developmental biology - 1 Oct 2017

Ancell Henry, Pires-daSilva Andre

Abstract excerpt

Differences between sexes of the same species in lifespan and aging rate are widespread. While the proximal and evolutionary causes of aging are well researched, the factors that contribute to sex differences in these traits have been less studied. The striking diversity of nematodes provides ample opportunity to study variation in sex-specific lifespan patterns associated with shifts in life history and mating...
