'Social heterosis' as a process that maintains genetic variation--a comment.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Mar 2008

Santos M

Abstract excerpt

In the 'mating pool' mode of reproduction, offspring genotypes at each generation are taken randomly from a common population and subdivided into groups where individuals representing a finite sample from the pooled distribution reproduce proportional to their fitness. Assuming that genetically d...
