Life-span assay of new PdL insertion lines. The new PdL insertion lines were crossed to the appropriate rtTA insertion line, and male progeny were assayed for life span in the presence (+DOX) and absence of DOX (-DOX). Each line is represented by a pair of bars, black bars for -DOX and white bars for +DOX. (a) Lines crossed to rtTA(3)E2. The average life span -DOX was 64.7 days and the average +DOX was 65.9 days, for an average increase of 1.8%. (b) Lines crossed to rtTA(3)M1. The average life span -DOX was 59.4 days and the average +DOX was 61.2 days for an average increase of 3.0%.
