Parental effects and the evolution of phenotypic memory.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Feb 2016

Kuijper B, Johnstone R A

Abstract excerpt

Despite growing evidence for nongenetic inheritance, the ecological conditions that favour the evolution of heritable parental or grandparental effects remain poorly understood. Here, we systematically explore the evolution of parental effects in a patch-structured population with locally changing environments. When selection favours the production of a mix of offspring types, this mix differs according to the...
