What did studies of Germline loss find?

1

Studies of Germline loss measured 1 outcome; the most studied are ectopic fat accumulation (1 study).

Ectopic fat accumulation

1 study

  1. Germline loss decreases ectopic fat accumulation in worms.

    “germ-line loss, and dietary restriction, which effectively delay aging in evolutionary divergent organisms, diminish the rate of ectopic fat accumulation”
