Kin selection promotes female productivity and cooperation between the sexes. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Adv, 2017
Experimental evolution reveals the power of kin selection to shape female productivity and modulate sexual conflict. Hamilton’s theory of kin selection explains the evolution of costly traits that benefit other individuals by highlighting the fact that ...

Kin selection and the evolution of plant reproductive traits. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Biol Sci, 2016
Competition among developing seeds and sibling rivalry within multiovulated ovaries can be deleterious for both the maternal parent and the siblings.

Genomic Signature of Kin Selection in an Ant with Obligately Sterile Workers. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Biol Evol, 2017
Kin selection is thought to drive the evolution of cooperation and conflict, but the specific genes and genome-wide patterns shaped by kin selection are unknown. We identified thousands of genes associated with the sterile ant worker caste, the archetype

Kin selection, kin recognition and kin discrimination in plants revisited: a claim for considering environmental and genetic variability.

open access: yesPlant, Cell and Environment, 2023
Considering kin selection in the study of interacting conspecific plants broadens our vision of plant behaviour and brings arguments to explain plant-plant positive interactions.

Problem solving in European bison (Bison bonasus): two experimental approaches

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2021
The ability to solve novel problems is crucial for individual fitness. However, studies on problem solving are usually done on few taxa, with species with low encephalization quotient being rarely tested.

Theoretical Predictions for Sociogenomic Data: The Effects of Kin Selection and Sex-Limited Expression on the Evolution of Social Insect Genomes [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2016
Kin selection theory has always been explicitly genetic and has long been invoked to explain the evolution of the sterile worker caste in the social insects.

Cooperative Behaviors in Group-Living Spider Mites

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Cooperative behaviors are evolutionary stable if the direct and/or indirect fitness benefits exceed the costs of helping. Here we discuss cooperation and behaviors akin to cooperation in subsocial group-living species of two genera of herbivorous spider ...
