Negotiation and appeasement can be more effective drivers of sociality than kin selection.
Two alternative frameworks explain the evolution of cooperation in the face of conflicting interests. Conflicts can be alleviated by kinship, the alignment of interests by virtue of shared genes, or by negotiation strategies, allowing mutually beneficial trading of services or commodities. Although negotiation often occurs in kin-structured populations, the interplay of kin- and negotiation-bas...
متن کاملA Little More than Kind and Less than Kin: The Unwarranted Use of Kin Selection in Spatial Models of Communication
It has become increasingly apparent that spatial and other forms of ecological situatedness can introduce radical di erences in the evolutionary outcome of models of con ictive social behavior. Cooperative interactions are often found to have an increased viability in spatially situated models. One possible explanation for this phenomenon makes use of kin-selective arguments according to which ...
متن کاملCan there be more predators than prey?
One of the few general “theorems” of ecology is the statement that in a given habitat there can be no more species present than the number of limiting resources. Our aim is to examine several of the versions of this “theorem” present in the literature, to compare them and to consider the underlying assumptions and definitions so as to decide to what ecological situations the theorem is applicab...
متن کاملAnalog Computer-Aided Detection (CAD) information can be more effective than binary marks.
In socially important visual search tasks, such as baggage screening and diagnostic radiology, experts miss more targets than is desirable. Computer-aided detection (CAD) programs have been developed specifically to improve performance in these professional search tasks. For example, in breast cancer screening, many CAD systems are capable of detecting approximately 90% of breast cancer, with a...
متن کاملTriple-site antigen capture ELISA for human myoglobin can be more effective than double-site assay.
Using a panel of monoclonal antibodies against human myoglobin (Mb), we have shown that the sensitivity of antigen-capture ELISA can be significantly increased by simultaneous immobilization of two cooperating capture monoclonal antibodies on a solid phase. This method ("triple-site ELISA") uses three monoclonal antibodies to different epitopes of the same antigen (two capture/one tracer) unlik...
