Journal ArticleDOI
On the evolution of epistasis III: the haploid case with mutation
TL;DR: It is shown that when linkage in the three-locus system is tight, an increase in the frequency of a modifier allele that induces either more negative or more positive epistasis is possible.
Journal ArticleDOI
The evolution of altruism by kin selection: New phenomena with strong selection
TL;DR: Clustering of cooperatives produces dynamics for the increase of cooperation that are formally similar to population models of inbreeding, and an increase in the tendency to cluster is equivalent to increasing the “relationship” among cooperatives, and therefore augments the chance for cooperation to increase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Female fertility history and mid-late-life health: Findings from China.
TL;DR: It is found that parity is related to the mid-late-life health of women and is associated with ADL impairment; however, the correlation is mediated by socioeconomic status.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two-locus autosomal sex determination: on the evolutionary genetic stability of the even sex ratio.
TL;DR: In two-locus models of sex determination, there are two kinds of interior (polymorphic) equilibria: one has the even sex ratio, and the other has equal allele frequencies in the two sexes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Female-Specific DNA Sequences in the Chicken Genome

TL;DR: Eight in silico W-specific sequences from the WASHUC1 chicken genome assembly gave female-specific PCR products using chicken DNA that may be used for early sexing in commercial chicken and turkey flocks.
