Fig. 1. In(3R)P shortens lifespan and lifespan varies clinally.

Fig. 1

Effects of the In(3R)P inversion polymorphism on adult lifespan (days) in females and males. The bar plots show means and standard errors. Black bars: Florida inverted (FI); dark grey bars: Florida standard (FS); light grey bars: Maine standard (MS). Results for pairwise comparisons among karyotypes with generalized Wilcoxon (χ2) tests are shown in letters: groups that do not contain the same letter are significantly different from each other (P<0.05). The In(3R)P inversion shortens lifespan as compared to uninverted karyotypes; lifespan is clinally differentiated, with high-latitude flies from Maine living longer than flies from low-latitude. See Results and Table 1 for details; for survival curves see Fig. S1.
