To find out, we'll be heading back to the Cévennes next September. The plan is to capture individuals born in 2026, identified during our early summer fieldwork, and take phenotypic measurements. Find out more about the internship opportunity via the following link: sfecologie.org/offre/stage-...

4. Our results also suggest that the "paradox of stasis” may partly stem from limited temporal resolution in studies. Compensatory mechanisms over generations may mask evolutionary trajectories when analyses focus solely on short-term fitness proxies.

3. kin selection provides a plausible framework for understanding our results. Kin selection models predict that dispersers benefit from the success of their resident relatives, and that dispersal primarily arises to mitigate competition among kin.

2. We show that dispersers experienced reduced individual fitness during their lifetime, yet their genetic lineages persisted longer through generations. This antagonistic interplay between short- and long-term selection pressures explains how dispersal polymorphism is maintained in the population.

1. Using quantitative genetic and pedigree-based approaches, we estimated the heritability, intragenerational and multigenerational selection of dispersal.
