Lifespan

upin silico1

1 study
  1. Group living extends lifespan in silico.

    “group-living species generally live longer than solitary species”

    In silico

    Correlated evolution of social organization and lifespan in mammals

Time to onset of constant lordosis

upin rats1

1 study
  1. Group living increases time to onset of constant lordosis in rats.

    “Long-term group living delayed CL until late in the life span, while temporary group living delayed it only until rats returned to isolation.”

Lordosis reflex intensity

1 study
  1. Group living decreases lordosis reflex intensity in rats.

    “Group living decreased the lordosis reflex intensity in both old and young rats and delayed the onset of CL.”

Longevity evolution

upin silico1

1 study
  1. Group living is associated with longevity evolution in silico.

    “transition rate from a short-lived state to a long-lived state is higher in group-living than non-group-living species”
