Kin distribution of amphibian larvae in the wild.

Molecular ecology - 1 Apr 2006

Halverson M A, Skelly D K, Caccone A

Abstract excerpt

According to kin selection theory, the location of an individual with respect to its relatives can have important ramifications for its fitness. Perhaps more than any other vertebrate group, anuran amphibian larvae have been the subject of many experiments on this topic. Some anuran species have been shown in the laboratory to recognize and associate with their siblings and half-siblings. However, due to the...
