FIGURE 2

Survival of female (A) and male (B) mice fed the fructose/glucose and sucrose diets for 40 wk before release into enclosures wherein all mice consumed the fructose/glucose diet during the 32-wk OPA competition. (A) Females initially fed the fructose/glucose diet experienced mortality at twice the level of females fed the sucrose diet before OPA release (P = 0.012). (B) No overall dietary pattern was seen in males because the influence of precompetition diet differed significantly across populations (P = 0.040). Values are totals across replicates; n = 104 females, n = 56 males. *Indicates a P value < 0.05. OPA, organismal performance assay.
