The mean and maximal lifespan of male (M) and female (F) rpd3def/+ and +/+ control flies on different food levels. All values obtained for controls are compared to values of the rpd3def/+ group of the same sex and on the same food levels to determine the percent increase in mean and maximal lifespan. Food (N): standard food is 1.0N. Number: number of flies used in the experiment. Mean and maximal lifespan are in days. Data are censored for 0-10 days. Long-rank analyses were performed using the JMP 11 program.
