1

bold numbers denote the greatest median lifespans and italicised numbers the shortest median lifespans, within the DR food range for that strain in that trial.

2

For all DR ranges for each strain, the longest-lived condition was significantly different from the shortest-lived condition; percentages are derived from the average lifespan difference due to DR.

3

In cases where there was no significant difference between two food types for the longest or shortest-lived condition, two numbers are in bold or italicised.
