Genetic analysis of reproductive aging in C. elegans.
(A) C. elegans displays a series of age-related degenerative changes including loss of self-fertile reproduction (red), mated reproduction (blue), pharyngeal pumping (green), and survival (black). (B) Three major discovery approaches have been used to identify genes that influence reproductive aging.
