Principal component analysis of normalised positive and negative ionisation mode lipidomics data for male and female Daphnia magna demonstrated as percentage of lifespan. Principal component 1 shows clear separation based on sex (F = female, M = male) with females grouped to the left and males to the right. Principal component 2 shows separation by age depicted by colour ranging from orange (young) to blue (old). Female D. magna age range is 10 days to 80 days (maximum sampled age = 80 days). For female age groups 20, 40 and 80 days, eight technical replicates were used and for intermediate ages two technical replicates were used. Male D. magna age groups ranging from 8 days to 40 days were used (maximum sampled age = 40 days). For male D. magna age groups 10, 20 and 40 days, eight technical replicates were used and for intermediate age groups two technical replicates were used. For detailed information regarding biological replicate numbers see Supplementary Tables S1 and S2. Supplementary Figures S5 and S6 show PCA plots for positive and negative ion mode separately and highlight the grouping of the intrastudy QC sample.
