Abstract
A recent study in BMC Evolutionary Biology has shown that genetically similar individual ring-tailed lemurs are also more similar in their scent composition, suggesting a possible mechanism of kin recognition. Theoretical and experimental studies reveal challenges ahead in achieving a true systems-level understanding of this process and its outcomes.
摘要
《BMC进化生物学》最近的一项研究表明，基因相似的环尾狐猴个体在气味组成上也更为相似，这暗示了一种可能的亲属识别机制。理论和实验研究揭示了在实现对这一过程及其结果的真正系统层面理解方面所面临的挑战。
