In Tribolium and Drosophila preimaginal growth rate and imaginal life-span are directly, but inversely related: the lower the growth rate, the shorter the life-span in Tribolium, the longer in Drosophila. These conflicting results, which give ground to the developmental theory of ageing, may be due to the biology of the species and to the experimental approaches.
在赤拟谷盗和果蝇中，幼虫前期生长速率与成虫寿命直接相关，但呈负相关：在赤拟谷盗中，生长速率越低，寿命越短；在果蝇中，生长速率越低，寿命越长。这些相互矛盾的结果为衰老的发育理论提供了依据，可能是由于物种生物学特性和实验方法所致。
