The evolutionary dynamics of selfish replicators: a two-level selection model.

Journal of theoretical biology - 7 Apr 1997

Godelle B, Reboud X

Abstract excerpt

The aim of the present paper is to study the evolutionary dynamics of selfish replicators in a constant genetic background. Selfish replicators are viewed as alleles at a single locus, having a pleiotropic effect. Infinitely many alleles are possible; they act on individual fitness and have various levels of ability to distort segregation. This results in a two-level process of selection, including...
