Living on the edge: how philopatry maintains adaptive potential [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2013
Without genetic variation, species cannot cope with changing environments, and evolution does not proceed. In endangered species, adaptive potential may be eroded by decreased population sizes and processes that further reduce gene flow such as philopatry and local adaptations.

Transmission of social status drives cooperation and offspring philopatry. [PDF]

Proc Biol Sci, 2023
The evolution of cooperation depends on two crucial overarching factors: relatedness, which describes the extent to which the recipient shares genes in common with the actor; and quality, which describes the recipient's basic capacity to transmit genes into the future.

Strong philopatry in an estuarine-dependent fish. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
AbstractUnderstanding fish movement is critical in determining the spatial scales in which to appropriately manage wild populations. Genetic markers provide a natural tagging approach to assess the degree of gene flow and population connectivity across a species distribution.

Winter Philopatry in Migratory Waterfowl [PDF]

The Auk, 1999
Philopatry in migratory species can apply to any location used during the annual cycle. The degree of philopatry influences the genetic structure of populations, but only at the stage of the annual cycle when pair formation and gene exchange occur. Because pair formation in birds typically occurs during the breeding season, most studies have fo- cused ...

The evolution of social philopatry in female primates [PDF]

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2020
AbstractThe transition from solitary life to sociality is considered one of the major transitions in evolution. In primates, this transition is currently not well understood. Traditional verbal models appear insufficient to unravel the complex interplay of environmental and demographic factors involved in the evolution of primate sociality, and recent ...

Experience‐dependent natal philopatry of breeding greater flamingos [PDF]

Journal of Animal Ecology, 2010
Summary1. Contrary to the generally high level of natal philopatry (i.e. likelihood that individuals breed at their natal colony) found in first‐breeding colonial birds, little is known of natal philopatry later in life. Most hypotheses advanced to explain natal philopatry are valid at all ages.

Philopatry and migration of Pacific white sharks [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2009
Advances in electronic tagging and genetic research are making it possible to discern population structure for pelagic marine predators once thought to be panmictic. However, reconciling migration patterns and gene flow to define the resolution of discrete population management units remains a major challenge, and a vital conservation priority for ...

Gene diversity and female philopatry. [PDF]

Genetics, 1991
Abstract The effect of female philopatry on the apportionment of gene diversity within a population is evaluated. Even with random mate selection, the apportionment of gene diversity within and among social lineages (groups of related females) is inherently different than in classically defined demic groups.

Female philopatry and dominance patterns in wild geladas [PDF]

American Journal of Primatology, 2010
AbstractCercopithecines have a highly conserved social structure with strong female bonds and stable, maternally inherited linear dominance hierarchies. This system has been ascribed to the pervasiveness of female philopatry within the typical multi‐male, multi‐female social groups.
