A database of vertebrate longevity records and their relation to other life‐history traits

DE MAGALHÃES, J. P., COSTA, J.·2009·Journal of Evolutionary Biology

Abstract

Longevity is a major characteristic of animals that has long fascinated scientists. In this work, we present a comprehensive database of animal longevity records and related life‐history traits entitled AnAge, which we compiled and manually curated from an extensive literature. AnAge started as a collection of longevity records, but has since been expanded to include quantitative data for numerous other life‐history traits, including body masses at different developmental stages, reproductive data such as age at sexual maturity and measurements of reproductive output, and physiological traits related to metabolism. AnAge features over 4000 vertebrate species and is a central resource for applying the comparative method to studies of longevity and life‐history evolution across the tree of life. Moreover, by providing a reference value for longevity and other life‐history traits, AnAge can prove valuable to a broad range of biologists working in evolutionary biology, ecology, zoology, physiology and conservation biology. AnAge is freely available online ( http://genomics.senescence.info/species/ ).

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Existing data for animal longevity typically include values for the maximum observed lifespan of a species.

    “Existing data for animal longevity7–9 typically include values for the maximum observed lifespan of a species.”
  • Existing large-scale datasets on animal lifespans from wild populations mostly consist of maximum longevity values, and therefore are not comparable with the median life expectancy estimates.

    “Unfortunately, existing large-scale datasets on animal lifespans from wild populations7–9 mostly consist of maximum longevity values, and therefore are not comparable with our median life expectancy estimates.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
