Journal ArticleDOI

A Generic Estimation of Population Subdivision Using Distances Between Alleles With Special Reference for Microsatellite Loci

TL;DR: The relationships among these estimators of population differentiation are discussed and how a single analysis of variance framework can accomodate these qualitatively different data types is shown.
Journal ArticleDOI

Local Adaptation and Gene-For-Gene Coevolution in a Metapopulation Model

TL;DR: A metapopulation model is developed, taking explicit account of both population densities and gene frequencies, to determine the influence of ecological and genetical parameters on the local adaptation of the parasites and on the spatial distribution of resistance and virulence genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Local adaptation, evolutionary potential and host–parasite coevolution: interactions between migration, mutation, population size and generation time

TL;DR: A host–parasite metapopulation model is analysed and it is found that higher numbers of mutants or migrants do, in general, promote local adaptation, and shorter parasite generation time does not always favour parasite local adaptation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative analysis of microsatellite and allozyme markers: a case study investigating microgeographic differentiation in brown trout (Salmo trutta)

TL;DR: A comparative study between microsatellite and allozyme markers was conducted on natural populations of resident brown trout sampled over a reduced geographical scale and on hatchery strains, indicating that isolation-by-distance acted significantly on brown trout populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inclusive fitness theory and eusociality

Patrick Abbot, +137 more
- 24 Mar 2011 - 
TL;DR: It is argued that inclusive fitness theory has been of little value in explained the natural world, and that it has led to negligible progress in explaining the evolution of eusociality, but these arguments are based upon a misunderstanding of evolutionary theory and a misrepresentation of the empirical literature.
