The effects of diet and mating system on reproductive (and post‐reproductive) life span in a freshwater snail
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4689
Abstract: Abstract The length of the reproductive life span, along with the number/frequency/magnitude of reproductive events, quantifies an individual's potential contribution to the next generation. By examining reproductive life span, and distinguishing it from somatic life… read more here.

Linking the maximum reported life span to the aging rate in wild birds
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7471
Abstract: Abstract Dozens of surrogates have been used to reflect the rate of aging in comparative biology. For wild organisms, the maximum reported life span is often considered a key metric. However, the connection between the… read more here.

Food deprivation exposes sex‐specific trade‐offs between stress tolerance and life span in the copepod Tigriopus californicus
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8822
Abstract: Abstract Long life is standardly assumed to be associated with high stress tolerance. Previous work shows that the copepod Tigriopus californicus breaks this rule, with longer life span under benign conditions found in males, the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/etc.5481
Abstract: The ability of an organism to cope with environmental stressors varies across the life span because of developmental stage–specific responses and age‐related functional declines. In the present study, we examined the effect of age on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/mma.7136
Abstract: Considering unbounded mortality rates causes difficulties in the numerical simulation of finite life‐span population models. In this work, a suitable numerical technique is introduced in order to approximate the density solution of this kind of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10522-018-09791-1
Abstract: Artificial selection for increased life span in experimental populations of Drosophila melanogaster sometimes produces long-lived populations that exhibit greater fecundity than unselected controls. The absence of a trade-off between survival and reproduction in these cases… read more here.
