A test for the genetic basis of natural selection: an individual‐based longitudinal study in a stream‐dwelling fish
TL;DR: Large body size appears nonetheless to be selectively advantageous via a relationship with early maturity, and a practicable framework for further studies of the genetic basis of natural selection is provided.

The paradox of cooperation benefits
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that, assuming positive assortment, under most conditions higher cooperation benefits also increase the share of cooperators, and under a specified range of payoff values, when at least two payoff parameters are modified, the reverse is true.

Bridging social evolution theory and emerging empirical approaches to social behavior
TL;DR: It is argued that unlocking the transformative potential of the emerging empirical approaches to social behavior requires new kinds of theoretical approaches that integrate proximate behavioral, genomic, and neurophysiological mechanisms with evolutionary dynamics.

A general ploidy model for the evolution of helping in viscous populations.
Angela Yi-Chen Yeh,Andy Gardner +1 more
TL;DR: A model of general ploidy is developed that recovers these three scenarios as special cases and allows examination of scenarios that have not been considered previously, and clarifies the importance of the implicit assumption of monandry in previous models and reveals that the cancellation result obtains in some models of ploids but not in others.

Evolutionary potential of morphological traits across different life-history stages.
TL;DR: It is emphasized that predictions of evolutionary potential for morphological traits are likely to be highly variable, both in strength and direction, depending on the life stage and method used, thus mitigating the capacity to predict adaptation and persistence of wild populations.
