An Evolutionary Theory of Suicide [PDF]

open access: yesGames, 2013
We analyze a model in which individuals have hereditary reproductive types. The reproductive value of an individual is determined by her reproductive type and the amount of resources she can access. We introduce the possibility of suicide and assume it is also a genetic trait that interacts with the reproductive type of an individual.

Understanding evolutionary and ecological dynamics using a continuum limit

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Continuum limits in the form of stochastic differential equations are typically used in theoretical population genetics to account for genetic drift or more generally, inherent randomness of the model. In evolutionary game theory and theoretical ecology,

Evolving social behavior through selection of single-cell adhesion in Dictyostelium discoideum

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: The social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum commonly forms chimeric fruiting bodies. Genetic variants that produce a higher proportion of spores are predicted to undercut multicellular organization unless cooperators assort positively.

Evaluating the maintenance of disease-associated variation at the blood group-related gene B4galnt2 in house mice

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2017
Background B4galnt2 is a blood group-related glycosyltransferase that displays cis-regulatory variation for its tissue-specific expression patterns in house mice. The wild type allele, found e.g.

Social conflicts in Dictyostelium discoideum : a matter of scales

open access: yesPeer Community Journal, 2021
The social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum, where aggregation of genetically heterogeneous cells produces functional collective structures, epitomizes social conflicts associated with multicellular organization.

PALEONTOLOGY AND EVOLUTIONARY THEORY [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1974
In the introduction to the recently published collection Models in Paleobiology, Schopf (1972, p. 4) says, "We look with awe at the results which have followed the application of fundamental chemistry in a geochemical context, and the use of cartesian methodology in molecular biology.
