Probing the evolution of senescence in Drosophila melanogaster with P-element tagging.

Genetica - 1 Jan 1995

Clark A G, Guadalupe R N

Abstract excerpt

Natural populations host a wealth of genetic variation in longevity and age-specific schedules of reproduction. This variation provides critical information for inferring the evolutionary origin of senescence. Patterns of mutational effects on age-specific fecundity and survival provide additional insight to distinguish alternative models of senescence. In this study, P-elements bearing the white minigene were...
