Reproductive aging weakens offspring survival and constrains the telomerase response to herpesvirus in Pacific oysters
11 Sept 2024
Abstract excerpt
Telomere length (TL) is increasingly recognized as a molecular marker that reflects how reproductive aging affects intergenerational transmissions. Here, we investigated the effects of parental age on offspring survival and the regulation of TL by examining the telomere-elongating activity of telomerase in the Pacific oyster. We assessed the classical hallmarks of aging in parents at three age classes (young,...
