Is Longevity a Heritable Trait? Evidence for Non-genomic Influence from an Extended Longevity Phenotype of Drosophila melanogaster.

Current aging science - 1 Jan 2018

Deepashree S, Shivanandappa T, Ramesh S R

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Although genetic variations are heritable, some quantitative traits like longevity may have non-genomic influence on heritability. Laboratory-selected inbred strains of extended longevity phenotype of Drosophila offer an opportunity to study the inheritance of longevity. OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to examine the heritability of longevity in an extended longevity phenotype of Drosophila...
