Indirect genetic effects and kin recognition: estimating IGEs when interactions differ between kin and strangers.

Heredity - 1 Feb 2014

Alemu S W, Berg P, Janss L, Bijma P

Abstract excerpt

Social interactions among individuals are widespread, both in natural and domestic populations. As a result, trait values of individuals may be affected by genes in other individuals, a phenomenon known as indirect genetic effects (IGEs). IGEs can be estimated using linear mixed models. The traditional IGE model assumes that an individual interacts equally with all its partners, whether kin or strangers. There is...
