Evolution: Skipping school

Research output: Contribution to journal › Short survey › peer-review

Abstract

Some individual fish like to be close together in 'schools', while other individuals like to be alone. A pair of recent papers dissects the genetic basis of schooling behavior, showing that genetic changes in sensory systems are involved when this social behavior is lost during evolution.
