Neglecting larval rearing conditions in Drosophila melanogaster can negatively impact research on ageing

The developmental conditions of Drosophila melanogaster flies can modify the phenotypic traits adults. However, control these is neglected by some authors in their articles and readers are unaware, for instance, whether developed crowded cultures or fed on a new used medium. Controlling allows to know precisely viability flies, duration development sex-ratio, which be warning signals bad rearing conditions. As results experiments effects ageing it necessary strictly them.
