Large effects and the infinitesimal model
Theor Popul Biol. 2024 Feb 27;156:117-129. doi: 10.1016/j.tpb.2024.02.009. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe infinitesimal model of quantitative genetics relies on the Central Limit Theorem to stipulate that under additive models of quantitative traits determined by many loci having similar effect size, the difference between an offspring's genetic trait component and the average of their two parents' genetic trait components is Normally distributed and independent of the parents' values. Here, we investigate how the assumption of similar effect sizes affects the model: if, alternatively, the tail of the effect size distri...

Evolution of delayed dispersal with group size effect and population dynamics
Theor Popul Biol. 2024 Feb 26:S0040-5809(24)00016-9. doi: 10.1016/j.tpb.2024.02.007. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIndividuals delay natal dispersal for many reasons. There may be no place to disperse to; immediate dispersal or reproduction may be too costly; immediate dispersal may mean that the individual and their relatives miss the benefits of group living. Understanding the factors that lead to the evolution of delayed dispersal is important because delayed dispersal sets the stage for complex social groups and social behavior. Here, we study the evolution of delayed dispersal when the quality of the local environment...

Evolution of spite versus evolution of altruism through a disbandment mechanism
In this study, we focus on the mechanism by which individuals choose to keep or stop the interaction according to the opponent's behavior. Using the evolutionary game theory, we investigate the evolution of altruism and spite under this mechanism. Our model revealed that the evolution of spite is less likely than the evolution of altruism.PMID:38387802 | DOI:10.1016/j.tpb.2024.02.008 (Source: Theoretical Population Biology)
