Heritable true fitness and bright birds: a role for parasites?

TL;DR: In this paper, a combination of seven surveys of blood parasites in North American passerines reveals weak, highly significant association over species between incidence of chronic blood infections (five genera of protozoa and one nematode) and striking display (three characters: male "brightness", female "brights", and male song).
Journal ArticleDOI

Models of parasite virulence

TL;DR: Standard models of parasite virulence are summarized and connected to diverse topics, such as the virulence of bacterial plasmids, the evolution of genomes, and the processes that influence conflict and cooperation among the earliest replicators near the origin of life.
Book

Evolutionary Game Dynamics

TL;DR: A survey of deterministic dynamical systems motivated by evolutionary game theory can be found in this article, where the authors show that a static, equilibrium-based viewpoint is, on principle, unable to always account for the long-term behaviour of players adjusting their behaviour to maximize their payoff.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linkage disequilibrium -understanding the evolutionary past and mapping the medical future

TL;DR: The linkage disequilibrium process, the nonrandom association of alleles at different loci, and the population genetic processes that affect it are reviewed.
Reference EntryDOI

Life history theory and evolutionary psychology.

TL;DR: An overview of life history theory and its main psychological applications can be found in this article, where basic trade-offs in life history allocations are discussed and the concept of Life History Strategies is introduced.

Rare and common variants: twenty arguments

TL;DR: 20 arguments for and against each of these models of the genetic basis of complex traits are reviewed and it is concluded that both classes of effect can be readily reconciled.
