Host-parasite coevolution and the stability of genetic kin recognition. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2023
Crozier’s paradox suggests that genetic kin recognition will not be evolutionarily stable. The problem is that more common tags (markers) are more likely to be recognized and helped.

Kin-recognition and predation shape collective behaviors in the cannibalistic nematode Pristionchus pacificus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2023
Kin-recognition is observed across diverse species forming an important behavioral adaptation influencing organismal interactions. In many species, the molecular mechanisms involved are difficult to characterize, but in the nematode Pristionchus ...

Kin recognition and perceived facial similarity. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Vis, 2020
Facial similarity between individuals informs kinship judgments in third-party kin recognition. Indeed, one study found that similarity and kinship judgments encapsulate the same information (Maloney & Dal Martello, 2006).

Paternal kin recognition in the high frequency / ultrasonic range in a solitary foraging mammal [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Ecology, 2012
Background Kin selection is a driving force in the evolution of mammalian social complexity. Recognition of paternal kin using vocalizations occurs in taxa with cohesive, complex social groups.

A Meta-Analysis of Response Strategies and Interfering Factors of Kin Recognition in Plants [PDF]

open access: yesPlants
Conspecific plants exhibit morphological and biochemical plasticity in response to genetic relatedness in varying environments. However, the response strategies and factors influencing kin recognition in plants remain unclear.

Kin recognition: function and mechanism in avian societies [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Ecology & Evolution, 1999
Cooperative behaviour resulting from kin selection is widespread among animals and the ability to recognize and discriminate between kin and non-kin is a critical element in kin selection theory. Current evidence suggests that associative learning is the

Kin recognition in plants-an ecological perspective: an overview of plant kin recognition under different resources, consequences and future challenges

open access: yesJournal of Plant Interactions
Kin recognition in plants is a debated topic, with mixed evidence on whether plants can distinguish kin from non-kin and adjust their behavior accordingly.

Kin Recognition in Plants: Did We Learn Anything From Roots?

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Kin recognition, manifesting through various traits such as changes in root or shoot growth, has been documented in several species of plants. Identifying this phenomenon in plants has intrinsic value itself, understanding why plants recognize kin and ...

Kin Recognition in the Parasitic Plant Triphysaria versicolor Is Mediated Through Root Exudates [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Triphysaria is a facultative parasitic plant in the Orobanchaceae that parasitizes the roots of a wide range of host plants including Arabidopsis, Medicago, rice and maize.

Kin recognition in an annual plant [PDF]

open access: yesBiology Letters, 2007
Kin recognition is important in animal social systems. However, though plants often compete with kin, there has been as yet no direct evidence that plants recognize kin in competitive interactions. Here we show in the annual plant Cakile edentula , allocation to roots increased when groups of
