Kin selection and the evolution of social information use in animal conflict.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2012

Baker Christopher C M, Dall Sasha R X, Rankin Daniel J

Abstract excerpt

Animals often use social information about conspecifics in making decisions about cooperation and conflict. While the importance of kin selection in the evolution of intraspecific cooperation and conflict is widely acknowledged, few studies have examined how relatedness influences the evolution of social information use. Here we specifically examine how relatedness affects the evolution of a stylised form of...
