Relaxed Selection Limits Lifespan by Increasing Mutation Load
Relaxed Selection Limits Lifespan by Increasing Mutation LoadStudying the genomic changes accompanying the repeated evolution of short lifespan in 45 African killifish species reveals that neutral genetic drift, rather than adaptive evolution, explains the accumulation of deleterious gene variants affecting lifespan and aging.Studying the genomic changes accompanying the repeated evolution of short lifespan in 45 African killifish species reveals that neutral genetic drift, rather than adaptive evolution, explains the accumulation of deleterious gene variants affecting lifespan and aging.Rongfeng Cui, Tania Medeiros, David Willemsen, Leonardo N.M.
