Figure 3. Demethylase inactive male flies are short-lived and sensitive to paraquat.

(A, B) Lifespan of wildtype and demethylase inactive Lid males and females, respectively showing that males are short-lived whereas females have a normal lifespan. (C, D). Survival in response to 20 mM paraquat of wildtype and demethylase inactive males and females, respectively. Like lifespan, males are sensitive to paraquat whereas females are not.
