Direct benefits and the evolution of female-biased cooperative breeding in Seychelles warblers.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Nov 2002

Richardson David S, Burke Terry, Komdeur Jan

Abstract excerpt

Inclusive fitness benefits have been suggested to be a major selective force behind the evolution of cooperative breeding. We investigated the fitness benefits selecting for cooperative breeding in the Seychelles warbler, Acrocephalus sechellensis. A microsatellite-based genotyping method was used to determine the relatedness of subordinates to group offspring in an isolated population of Seychelles warblers. The...
