Evolution of vertical and oblique transmission under fluctuating selection.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 6 Feb 2018

Ram Yoav, Liberman Uri, Feldman Marcus W

Abstract excerpt

The evolution and maintenance of social learning, in competition with individual learning, under fluctuating selection have been well-studied in the theory of cultural evolution. Here, we study competition between vertical and oblique cultural transmission of a dichotomous phenotype under constant, periodically cycling, and randomly fluctuating selection. Conditions are derived for the existence of a stable...
