Allopatric divergence of cooperators confers cheating resistance and limits effects of a defector mutation.

BMC ecology and evolution - 12 Dec 2022

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Social defectors may meet diverse cooperators. Genotype-by-genotype interactions may constrain the ranges of cooperators upon which particular defectors can cheat, limiting cheater spread. Upon starvation, the soil bacterium Myxococcus xanthus cooperatively develops into spore-bearing fruiting bodies, using a complex regulatory network and several intercellular signals. Some strains (cheaters) are...
