Assortative mating counteracts the evolution of dispersal polymorphisms.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Sept 2011

Fronhofer Emanuel A, Kubisch Alexander, Hovestadt Thomas, Poethke Hans-Joachim

Abstract excerpt

Polymorphic dispersal strategies are found in many plant and animal species. An important question is how the genetic variation underlying such polymorphisms is maintained. Numerous mechanisms have been discussed, including kin competition or frequency-dependent selection. In the context of sympa...
