Invasion fitness for gene-culture co-evolution in family-structured populations and an application to cumulative culture under vertical transmission

2017-01-24

Abstract excerpt

Human evolution depends on the co-evolution between genetically determined behaviors and socially transmitted information. Although vertical transmission of cultural information from parent to off-spring is common in hominins, its effects on cumulative cultural evolution are not fully understood. Here, we investigate gene-culture co-evolution in a family-structured population by studying the invasion fitness of a...
