Cooperative social clusters are not destroyed by dispersal in a ciliate.

BMC evolutionary biology - 14 Oct 2009

Schtickzelle Nicolas, Fjerdingstad Else J, Chaine Alexis, Clobert Jean

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The evolution of social cooperation is favored by aggregative behavior to facilitate stable social structure and proximity among kin. High dispersal rates reduce group stability and kin cohesion, so it is generally assumed that there is a fundamental trade-off between cooperation and...
