*—p < 0.001 according to the Gehan-Breslow-Wilcoxon test; +—p < 0.05 (0.0413) according to the Wang-Allison test, #—p = 0.0268, comparison with negative control (water-treated group), Gehan-Breslow-Wilcoxon test; @—p < 0.0001, Wang Allison test compared with water-treated cohort; the underlined values were significantly statistically different from negative water-treated control, the 4–7th columns had p < 0.0001, Wang-Allison test, the 5th column was tested with Gehan-Breslow-Wilcoxon test and all values had p < 0.0001); the p-values are mentioned with Bonferroni correction. The most prominent geroprotective effects on lifespan were observed in male flies. N—Number of flies.
