Reproductive skew and relatedness in social groups of European badgers, Meles meles.

Molecular ecology - 1 Apr 2008

Dugdale Hannah L, Macdonald David W, Pope Lisa C, Johnson Paul J, Burke Terry

Abstract excerpt

Reproductive skew is a measure of the proportion of individuals of each sex that breed in a group and is a valuable measure for understanding the evolution and maintenance of sociality. Here, we provide the first quantification of reproductive skew within social groups of European badgers Meles m...
