Dietary restriction fails to extend life in stressful environments

F. Zajitschek, S. R. K. Zajitschek, A. C. O. Vasconcelos, R. Bonduriansky

This study shows that dietary restriction in Drosophila does not extend lifespan under stressful temperatures, challenging the idea that it is an adaptive survival strategy in natural environments.

Effects of early and late life environments on ageing

K. Sanghvi, M. Iglesias-Carrasco, F. Zajitschek, L. Kruuk, M. L. Head

This study examines how early and late life environments interact to affect ageing and fitness in seed beetles, finding sex- and trait-specific effects.

Sex-specific effects of developmental density on life history and age-dependent flight traits

K. Sanghvi, F. Zajitschek, M. Iglesias-Carrasco, M. Head

This study examines how developmental crowding affects life history and flight traits in male and female seed beetles, finding sex-specific impacts on lifespan, fecundity, and age-dependent reproduction.

Sex and Power: sexual dimorphism in trait variability and its eco-evolutionary and statistical implications

S. R. K. Zajitschek, F. Zajitschek, R. Bonduriansky, R. C. Brooks, W. K. Cornwell, D. S. Falster, M. Lagisz, J. Mason, A. Senior, D. Noble, S. Nakagawa

The paper tests sex differences in trait variability using mouse data, finding trait-dependent patterns that challenge existing hypotheses and highlight eco-evolutionary and statistical implications.

Costs and benefits of giant sperm and sperm storage organs in Drosophila melanogaster

S. R. K. Zajitschek, F. Zajitschek, S. Josway, R. Shabeeb, M. Manier

This study examines the costs and benefits of long sperm and sperm storage organs in D. melanogaster, finding increased longevity in long sperm and SR genotypes with trade-offs in males.
