Falconer sensitivity index of climbing speed (time for a single fly to climb 9 cm in an inverted 25-mL serological pipette; plotted in cm/s in Figure 1) to age between week 1 and week 5, in virgin males (Table 1 of the paper): line mean at week 1 minus line mean at week 5, divided by the average change across the three lines of the study (DGRP_073, DGRP_229, DGRP_304), so the three values sum to 3. Unitless; a higher value means a steeper age-related decline. 30 flies per line, treatment and age, a new set of flies at each age. The paper does not say whether control, 1 mM Lisinopril-treated flies or both were used. [No unit]
