Testing evolutionary explanations for the lifespan benefit of dietary restriction in Drosophila melanogaster

E. Savola, C. Montgomery, F. M. Waldron, K. Monteith, P. Vale, C. Walling

This study tests evolutionary hypotheses for lifespan extension under dietary restriction in Drosophila melanogaster, finding that DR increases lifespan and reduces reproduction regardless of stressors.

Metagenomic sequencing suggests a diversity of RNA interference-like responses to viruses across multicellular eukaryotes

F. M. Waldron, G. N. Stone, D. J. Obbard

The paper uses metagenomic sequencing to investigate virus-derived small RNAs across diverse multicellular eukaryotes, finding variability in antiviral RNAi responses and identifying novel small RNA types.
