The evolution of strong reciprocity: cooperation in heterogeneous populations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors suggest that many humans have a predisposition to punish those who violate group-beneficial norms, even when this imposes a fitness cost on the punisher.
Journal ArticleDOI
Is evolvability evolvable
TL;DR: The concept of evolvability, and the increasing theoretical and empirical literature that refers to it, may constitute one of several pillars on which an extended evolutionary synthesis will take shape during the next few years, although much work remains to be done on how evolVability comes about.
Journal ArticleDOI
The causes of natural selection.
Michael J. Wade,Susan Kalisz +1 more
TL;DR: This work discusses how the observational approach of multivariate selection analysis can be complemented by experimental manipulations of the phenotypic distribution and the environment to identify not only how selection is operating on the phenotypesic distribution but also why it operates in the observed manner.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interacting Phenotypes and the Evolutionary Process. II. Selection Resulting from Social Interactions.
TL;DR: A model of social selection acting on interacting phenotype that can be evaluated independently from the genetics of interacting phenotypes is presented, analogous to covariance models of other forms of selection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interspecific Competition, Environmental Gradients, Gene Flow, and the Coevolution of Species' Borders
Ted J. Case,Mark L. Taper +1 more
TL;DR: This model includes interspecific competition and the frequency‐dependent selection that it generates, as well as stabilizing selection on a quantitative character, and simultaneously addresses the evolution of character displacement and species borders and reproduces the Kirkpatrick and Barton result that limited ranges can be produced with sufficiently steep environmental gradients and strong dispersal.
