人们对了解人口因素如何在粘性人口中介导社会进化有很大的兴趣。在这里,我们研究的影响异质性斑块质量,也就是说,生殖资源的可用性,为每个育种后的演变,帮助和伤害的行为。我们发现,由于取消的相关性和亲属竞争效应,专性和兼性的帮助和伤害的演变是不受粘度的程度,其特征在于无论是空间或时间异质性斑块质量的人口。然而,当斑块质量存在空间和时间异质性时,选择性的帮助和伤害可能会受到青睐,无论是高质量还是低质量的斑块,帮助和伤害都会受到青睐。我们强调了使用亲属选择理论来解释社会行为中的群体内变异的前景,并指出需要对这一主题进行进一步的理论和实证研究。
There has been much interest in understanding how demographic factors can mediate social evolution in viscous populations. Here, we examine the impact of heterogeneity in patch quality—that is, the availability of reproductive resources for each breeder—upon the evolution of helping and harming behaviors. We find that, owing to a cancellation of relatedness and kin competition effects, the evolution of obligate and facultative helping and harming is not influenced by the degree of viscosity in populations characterized by either spatial or temporal heterogeneity in patch quality. However, facultative helping and harming may be favored when there is both spatial and temporal heterogeneity in patch quality, with helping and harming being favored in both high‐quality and low‐quality patches. We highlight the prospect for using kin selection theory to explain within‐population variation in social behavior, and point to the need for further theoretical and empirical investigation of this topic.
