Precise age estimation in clonal species using a somatic genetic clock
2023-11-09
Abstract excerpt
Age and longevity are key parameters for demography and life-history evolution of organisms. In clonal species, a widespread life history among animals, plants, algae and fungi, the sexually produced offspring (the genet) grows indeterminately by producing iterative modules, or ramets. The age of large genets often remains elusive, while estimates based on their spatial extent as proxy for age are unreliable. Here...
