Title of Dataset: Misaligned plastic and evolutionary responses of lifespan to novel carbohydrate diets

Description of the Data and file structure

The data are from an assay measuring the effects of diet on lifespan in D.serrata

The data set is saved as a excel file. Each row corresponds to observations for one individual.

The data set has the following columns:

  1. id - A unique identification code assigned to each fly.

  2. vial - A vial number nested within diet that records which vial adult flies were reared in.

  3. sex - The sex of the flies

  4. spop - Each alphabet (A-D) corresponds to one of the four replicates for each dietary treatment.

  5. ediet - Evolutionary diet treatments

  6. tdiet - Developmental diet treatments

  7. days - Lifespan of flies

  8. censored 1 if flies were included in the analysis, or zero if flies escaped during the lifespan assay and were excluded from the analysis

N.B Diets 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 correspond to 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 S:Y respectively.
