SPECIAL ISSUE: Evolution of social behaviour
Guest Editors: Joel D. Levine, Daniel J. C. Kronauer, Michael H. Dickinson
January, 2017; 220 (1)

    Social evolution: from molecules and superorganisms to flocks, shoals and parenting
    Kathryn Knight
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 1-3; doi: 10.1242/jeb.154468

EDITORIAL

    The ultimate and proximate underpinnings of social behavior
    Daniel J. C. Kronauer, Joel D. Levine
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 4-5; doi: 10.1242/jeb.152785

    Genetic conflicts: the usual suspects and beyond
    Richard N. McLaughlin, Jr, Harmit S. Malik
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 6-17; doi: 10.1242/jeb.148148

    Summary: Diverse genetic conflicts shape a myriad of biological processes, from host–pathogen interactions to successful inheritance of chromosomes. Despite this diversity, common evolutionary and biochemical principles may dictate the course of the majority of these conflicts.

    The ecology and evolution of social behavior in microbes
    Corina E. Tarnita
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 18-24; doi: 10.1242/jeb.145631

    Summary: To avoid misleading conclusions, the study of microbial social behavior must be grounded in ecology and account for eco-evolutionary feedback. Recent developments may facilitate this experimentally and inform theoretical frameworks.

    Machine vision methods for analyzing social interactions
    Alice A. Robie, Kelly M. Seagraves, S. E. Roian Egnor, Kristin Branson
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 25-34; doi: 10.1242/jeb.142281

    Summary: We review recent developments in machine vision for automatic, quantitative analysis of social behavior that have changed the scale and resolution with which we can dissect interactions between animals.

    The neurogenetics of group behavior in Drosophila melanogaster
    Pavan Ramdya, Jonathan Schneider, Joel D. Levine
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 35-41; doi: 10.1242/jeb.141457

    Summary: We highlight studies that exploited computational tools and the genetic accessibility and rich social life of Drosophila melanogaster to reveal molecular and neuronal determinants of social networks and collective behavior.

    Phylogeny, environment and sexual communication across the Drosophila genus
    Jacob A. Jezovit, Joel D. Levine, Jonathan Schneider
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 42-52; doi: 10.1242/jeb.143008

    Summary: We explore the relationship between life history, phylogeny and social communication of the Drosophila genus.

    Caste development and evolution in ants: it's all about size
    Waring Trible, Daniel J. C. Kronauer
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 53-62; doi: 10.1242/jeb.145292

    Summary: Morphological castes in ants vary as a function of size, which has far-reaching consequences for caste development and evolution.

    Evolution of the asexual queen succession system and its underlying mechanisms in termites
    Kenji Matsuura
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 63-72; doi: 10.1242/jeb.142547

    Summary: Termite queens conditionally use sexual and asexual reproduction, where queens produce neotenic queens by parthenogenesis but use sexual reproduction to produce other colony members.

    Individual versus collective cognition in social insects
    Ofer Feinerman, Amos Korman
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 73-82; doi: 10.1242/jeb.143891

    Summary: This Review discusses how social insect colonies draw on both the cognition of their individual members and the interaction networks between these individuals to form collective cognition.

    When social behaviour is moulded in clay: on growth and form of social insect nests
    Andrea Perna, Guy Theraulaz
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 83-91; doi: 10.1242/jeb.143347

    Summary: Ants and termites collectively build large nests with complex architecture. Here, we review the organisation of these structures and the mechanisms involved in their construction.

    Modification of feeding circuits in the evolution of social behavior
    Eva K. Fischer, Lauren A. O'Connell
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 92-102; doi: 10.1242/jeb.143859

    Summary: Social behaviors are linked to foraging behavior on a behavioral and mechanistic level, and we propose that modifications of feeding circuits are crucial in the evolution of social behaviors.

    Cognitive skills and the evolution of social systems
    Russell D. Fernald
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 103-113; doi: 10.1242/jeb.142430

    Summary: Animals interacting successfully use cognitive skills such as recognizing individuals, their social rank and logic as described here in a cichlid fish, and the neural bases of these skills are identified.

    Intergenerational transmission of sociality: the role of parents in shaping social behavior in monogamous and non-monogamous species
    Allison M. Perkeybile, Karen L. Bales
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 114-123; doi: 10.1242/jeb.142182

    Summary: In this paper, we review the ways in which parents shape social behavior in offspring, in both monogamous and non-monogamous mammals.

    How social learning adds up to a culture: from birdsong to human public opinion
    Ofer Tchernichovski, Olga Feher, Daniel Fimiarz, Dalton Conley
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 124-132; doi: 10.1242/jeb.142786

    Summary: We review recent converging studies, across birdsongs and human cultures, about how social learning adds up to a stable but rich culture.

Meet the Editors at SICB Virtual 2021

Reserve your place to join some of the journal editors, including Editor-in-Chief Craig Franklin, at our Meet the Editor session on 17 February at 2pm (EST). Don’t forget to view our SICB Subject Collection, featuring relevant JEB papers relating to some of the symposia sessions.


2020 at The Company of Biologists

Despite 2020's challenges, we were able to bring a number of long-term projects and new ventures to fruition. As we enter a new year, join us as we reflect on the triumphs of the last 12 months.


The Big Biology podcast

JEB author Christine Cooper talks to Big Biology about her research. In this fascinating JEB sponsored podcast she tells us how tough zebra finches adjust their physiology to cope with extreme climate events. 


Developmental and reproductive physiology of small mammals at high altitude

Cayleih Robertson and Kathryn Wilsterman focus on high-altitude populations of the North American deer mouse in their review of the challenges and evolutionary innovations of pregnant and nursing small mammals at high altitude.


Read & Publish participation extends worldwide

“Being able to publish Open Access articles free of charge means that my article gets maximum exposure and has maximum impact, and that all my peers can read it regardless of the agreements that their universities have with publishers.”

Professor Roi Holzman (Tel Aviv University) shares his experience of publishing Open Access as part of our growing Read & Publish initiative. We now have over 60 institutions in 12 countries taking part – find out more and view our full list of participating institutions.
