The effects of relatedness, social contact, and sex on observational learning in rats (Rattus norvegicus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Kin recognition is the ability to identify a conspecific as a relative and can occur even when animals are complete strangers. By being able to recognise relatives, animals are able to give preferential treatment to those with which they share genes ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Altering Neighborhood Relatedness and Species Composition Affects Interior Douglas-Fir Size and Morphological Traits With Context-Dependent Responses

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Trees often exist in a complex ecological system with many biological interactions. Here we examine kin interactions of Pseudotsuga menziesii var. glauca (interior Douglas-fir) both in the context of pure kin stands, in accordance with established plant ...

Kin recognition and the evolution of altruism [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2001
In 1964, Hamilton formalized the idea of kin selection to explain the evolution of altruistic behaviours. Since then, numerous examples from a diverse array of taxa have shown that seemingly altruistic actions towards close relatives are a common phenomenon.

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.

Self-Reported Availability of Kinship Cues during Childhood is Associated with Kin-Directed Behavior to Parents in Adulthood

open access: yesEvolutionary Psychology, 2014
Reliable recognition of kin is an important factor in modulating kin-directed behaviors. For example, in selectively directing cooperative behavior to kin and diverting sexual interest away from them, kin first need to be recognized as such.

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

Kin recognition in plants: a plea to consider competitive ability

open access: yes, 2021
International audienceNumerous studies have focused on plant-plant positive interactions in opposition to the classic view of predominant negative interaction between individuals (competition and niche partitioning), and concluded that kin recognition ...

Decoding an olfactory mechanism of kin recognition and inbreeding avoidance in a primate

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2009
Background Like other vertebrates, primates recognize their relatives, primarily to minimize inbreeding, but also to facilitate nepotism. Although associative, social learning is typically credited for discrimination of familiar kin, discrimination of ...
