Social and spatial effects on genetic variation between foraging flocks in a wild bird population.

Molecular ecology - 1 Oct 2017

Abstract excerpt

Social interactions are rarely random. In some instances, animals exhibit homophily or heterophily, the tendency to interact with similar or dissimilar conspecifics, respectively. Genetic homophily and heterophily influence the evolutionary dynamics of populations, because they potentially affect sexual and social selection. Here, we investigate the link between social interactions and allele frequencies in...
