Integrating physiological, ecological and evolutionary change: a Price equation approach.
Sinéad Collins,Andy Gardner +1 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated how phenotypic responses to environmental change can be combined in an additive way, and Price's equation provides not only a powerful conceptual aid, but also a means for testing hypotheses and for directing empirical research programmes.

Bridging scales in the evolution of infectious disease life histories: theory
TL;DR: A theoretical approach is presented that circumvents difficulties by quantifying the relevant within‐host factors in an empirically tractable way and allows for the prediction of general characteristics of disease life history, including the timing of virulence, transmission, and host recovery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reciprocal Selection at the Phenotypic Interface of Coevolution
TL;DR: This work presents an approach for analyzing the strength of selection in a coevolutionary interaction where individuals interact at random, and for identifying which component traits of the phenotypic interface are critical to mediating coev evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pathways to Social Evolution: Reciprocity, Relatedness, and Synergy
Jeremy Van Cleve,Erol Akçay +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that behavioral responses (reciprocity), genetic relatedness, and synergy interact in nontrivial ways that cannot be easily captured by simple summary indices of assortment and demonstrate the importance of these interactions by showing how they have been neglected in previous synthetic models of social behavior both within and between species.

The explanatory logic and ontological commitments of generalized Darwinism
TL;DR: In this paper, the ontological commitments of a generalized version of the causal logic of Darwinism for economic evolution have been discussed, and the ontology of all evolutionary processes has been discussed.
