HIGHLIGHTS
- who: Michael A. Bentley et al. from the Department of Zoology, University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom, Department of Biochemistry have published the research: Pleiotropic constraints promote the evolution of cooperation in cellular groups, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
- what: In contrast to an earlier study here the authors show how the evolution of pleiotropic genetic architectures-which link the expression of cooperative and private traits-can protect against cheater lineages and allow cooperation to evolve. The authors develop an age-structured model of cellular groups and show that cooperation breaks down more slowly within groups . . .
