Inclusive fitness in evolution
Nature, 2011Arising from M. A. Nowak, C. E. Tarnita & E. O. Wilson , 1057–1062 (2010)10.1038/nature09205 ; Nowak et al. reply For over fifty years, the evolution of social behaviour has been guided by the concept of inclusive fitness as a measure of ...

How to measure inclusive fitness
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 1990Although inclusive fitness (Hamilton 1964) is regarded as the basic currency of natural selection, difficulty in applying inclusive fitness theory to field studies persists, a quarter-century after its introduction (Grafen 1982, 1984; Brown 1987). For instance, strict application of the original (and currently accepted) definition of inclusive fitness ...

Inclusive Fitness from Multitype Branching Processes
Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2010I use multitype branching processes to study genetic models for the evolution of social behaviour, i.e. behaviours that, when acted out, affect the success of the actor's neighbours. Here, I suppose an individual bearing a mutant copy of a gene influences the reproductive success of a neighbour by altering its own competitive ability.

For nearly 50 years, Inclusive Fitness Theory has provided researchers an avenue to understand altruistic interactions among individuals in a colony. It has recently come under fire by prominent academics suggesting it is unsatisfactory in describing altruism.

Inclusive Fitness, Altruism and Family Adaptation
The Canadian Journal of Psychiatry, 1983An integrative model of family functioning is put forward using a sociobiological framework. Three key socio-biological concepts that have a relevance to family interaction are inclusive fitness, altruism, and a struggle for status. The term ‘inclusive fitness’ encompasses the parents’ own fitness and that of their kith and kin. Altruism refers to how

Relatedness and inclusive fitness with inbreeding
Theoretical Population Biology, 1992Relatedness arising in kin selection theory is measured by a variable taking as values two pedigree indices in populations with inbreeding when selection is weak. This variable reduces to a single pedigree index when inbreeding is caused by partial selfing or partial sib-mating.

Inclusive fitness models with two sexes
Theoretical Population Biology, 1988Much recent work has focused on the transition from G. R. Price's (1970, Nature 227, 520-521) formula for allele frequency change to an inclusive fitness condition for the selective advantage of a certain behaviour. In case there is any kind of asymmetry between the sexes, the analysis must keep track of the two sexes separately, and this leads to a ...

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1979
Abstract Hamilton implicitly defined the inclusive fitness of an individual as the number of genomes, identical by descent to its own, but not in its own body, which owe their existence to expression of genes in said individual. Hamilton regarded inclusive fitness as the true metric of evolutionary success and the thin- maximized by selection ...
