Nice natives and mean migrants: the evolution of dispersal-dependent social behaviour in viscous populations.

TL;DR: It is shown that dispersal rate does matter when individuals can adjust their social behaviour conditional on whether they have dispersed orWhether they have remained close to their place of origin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Social evolution and genetic interactions in the short and long term.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the effect of genetic relatedness on the evolution of social behavior can be modeled as a stochastic analogue of the canonical equation of adaptive dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inbreeding and the evolution of altruism under kin selection: effects on relatedness and group structure.

TL;DR: Michod and Hamilton (1980) demonstrated that the several proposed definitions of relatedness are equivalent and identical to the central concept of Hamilton's theory of kin selection.

Reproductive Conflicts and Levels of Selection in the Ant Pristomyrmex pungens: Contextual Analysis and Partitioning of Covariance

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the effect of individual and colony-level selection on the myrmicine ant Pristomyrmex pungens by contextual analysis and partitioning of covariance.

Maintenance of Microbial Cooperation Mediated by Public Goods in Single- and Multiple-Trait Scenarios

TL;DR: Current knowledge on the evolutionary stability of microbial cooperation is described and recent discoveries describing the mechanisms operating in multiple-trait and multiple-constraint settings are discussed.
