Table refers to studies looking for a relationship between age and pteridine levels only.
Empty cells in the Table mean that the relevant effect was not examined or could not be resolved.
Yes, positive relationship between temperature and pteridine levels. No, no relationship between temperature and pteridine levels.
+, positive linear effect of age. + *, positive asymptotic effect of age; None, no effect of age.
Maximum age of individuals used to test the relationship between age and pteridine levels. Separate maximum ages are provided for males and females when they differed.
