Chimerism and altruism

2024-07-24

Abstract excerpt

Chimerism spans the tree of life, from mammals and corals to plants and fungi. In such organisms, individuals contain within them cells and genomes from another once distinct member of the population. This chimeric genetic composition may subsequently alter patterns of relatedness not only between those individuals, but also within them. Consequently, we may expect unique patterns of social behaviour in such speci...
