Multidisciplinary Approaches in Evolutionary Linguistics.

TL;DR: Evaluated how this multidisciplinary perspective yields important insights into a comprehensive understanding of language, its evolution, and human cognition is evaluated.

Flower Color Evolution and the Evidence of Pollinator-Mediated Selection.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarized experiments quantifying selection on continuous flower color variation in natural plant populations in the context of pollinator interactions and found that evidence for significant pollinator-mediated selection is surprisingly limited among existing studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antiherbivore defenses alter natural selection on plant reproductive traits.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that both herbivory and antiherbivore defenses alter natural selection on plant reproductive traits, and the significance of these results for understanding how antiherBivore defense interactions with herbivores and pollinators to shape floral evolution is discussed.

Patchiness and prosociality : An agent-based model of plio/pleistocene hominid food sharing

TL;DR: ShARE as discussed by the authors explores the dynamics of a unique conceptual model that treats fragmented closed habitat patches as the loci of hominid social evolution and investigates the altruistic behavior of food sharing using multilevel selection theory.

Disentangling evolutionary, plastic and demographic processes underlying trait dynamics: a review of four frameworks

TL;DR: It is concluded that no single framework provides the ‘true’ contributions of evolution, plasticity and demography, instead, different research questions require different frameworks.
