Accurate aging of wild animals thanks to first epigenetic clock for bats – Phys.org
A new study led by University of Maryland and UCLA researchers found that DNA from tissue samples can be used to accurately predict the age of bats in the wild….
UMD-led study revealed age-related changes to the DNA of bats related to longevity. Clockwise from top left: common vampire bat, (G. Wilkinson), greater horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus ferrumequinum (G. Jones), velvety free-tailed bat, bat, (S. Puechmaille), and greater mouse-eared (M. Tschapka). All can live 30 years or longer except greater mouse-eared, which only lives to 6 years of age.
