Kin selection, social structure, gene flow, and the evolution of chimpanzees.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 26 Aug 1994

Morin P A, Moore J J, Chakraborty R, Jin L, Goodall J, Woodruff D S

Abstract excerpt

Hypotheses about chimpanzee social behavior, phylogeography, and evolution were evaluated by noninvasive genotyping of free-ranging individuals from 20 African sites. Degrees of relatedness among individuals in one community were inferred from allele-sharing at eight nuclear simple sequence repea...
