Effect of diet macronutrient content, infection and injury stress on larval and adult life-history traits in Drosophila melanogaster

2021-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Dietary restriction (DR), the limitation of calories or a particular nutrient intake without malnutrition, extends lifespan and delays ageing across a range of taxa. To understand this response better and therefore its importance in the ageing process, it is important to understand the evolutionary basis of this response and its generality across environments. Several evolutionary hypotheses about why DR increases...
