Inbreeding, kin selection, and primate social evolution

摘要: In this paper I argue (a) that the study of kin selection may be facilitated by looking for influences inbreeding, which is an important aspect a population's genetic structure; (b) in nonhuman primates level inbreeding will largely function rate migration individuals, usually only one sex, between social units or troops; (c) many primate species live relatively outbred groups, and their structure reflects this; (d) extensive contrasts bonnet pigtail macaques reflect evolution under different levels inbreeding.
