Constraints on the origin and maintenance of genetic kin recognition.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Oct 2007

Rousset François, Roze Denis

Abstract excerpt

Kin-recognition mechanisms allow helping behaviors to be directed preferentially toward related individuals, and could be expected to evolve in many cases. However, genetic kin recognition requires a genetic polymorphism on which recognition is based, and kin discriminating behaviors will affect the evolution of such polymorphism. It is unclear whether genetic polymorphisms used in kin recognition should be...
