Diversification of transmission modes and the evolution of mutualism.

The American naturalist - 1 Nov 2005

Ferdy Jean-Baptiste, Godelle Bernard

Abstract excerpt

In order for mutualism to evolve, some force must align the interests of the two interacting partners. Vertical transmission can fill this role, but it is still unknown whether mutualism can be stable when vertically transmitted symbionts can evolve toward horizontal transmission. In this article...
