The social evolution of somatic fusion.
Aanen DK, Debets AJ, de Visser JA, Hoekstra RF. Aanen DK, et al. Among authors: hoekstra rf. Bioessays. 2008 Nov;30(11-12):1193-203. doi: 10.1002/bies.20840. Bioessays. 2008. PMID: 18937373
This is consistent with kin-selection theory, which predicts that the potential cost of fusion and the potential for somatic parasitism decrease with increasing relatedness. Paradoxically, however, Crozier found that, in the short term, positive-frequency-dependent selecti …

Adaptation to the cost of resistance in a haploid clonally reproducing organism: the role of mutation, migration and selection.
Jeger MJ, Wijngaarden PJ, Hoekstra RF. Jeger MJ, et al. Among authors: hoekstra rf. J Theor Biol. 2008 Jun 21;252(4):621-32. doi: 10.1016/j.jtbi.2008.02.023. Epub 2008 Feb 26. J Theor Biol. 2008. PMID: 18394653
We further derive a threshold level for the resident resistant-compensated population to reduce to following the cessation of spraying, such that the introduced susceptible-uncompensated genotype will invade. These results will be of use in determining the long-term persis …

Spatial structure inhibits the rate of invasion of beneficial mutations in asexual populations.
Habets MG, Czárán T, Hoekstra RF, de Visser JA. Habets MG, et al. Among authors: hoekstra rf. Proc Biol Sci. 2007 Sep 7;274(1622):2139-43. doi: 10.1098/rspb.2007.0529. Proc Biol Sci. 2007. PMID: 17609190 Free PMC article.
Limited dispersal and, as a consequence, local competition could slow down the invasion of fitter mutants, allowing the short-term coexistence of ancestral genotypes and mutants. We determined the rate of invasion of beneficial mutants of Escherichia coli, dispersed to dif …

The 'rare allele phenomenon' in a ribosomal spacer.
Schilthuizen M, Hoekstra RF, Gittenberger E. Schilthuizen M, et al. Among authors: hoekstra rf. Mol Ecol. 2001 May;10(5):1341-5. doi: 10.1046/j.1365-294x.2001.01282.x. Mol Ecol. 2001. PMID: 11380889
The phenomenon that normally rare alleles or other markers can increase in frequency in the centre of hybrid zones is not new. Under the term 'hybrizyme' or 'rare allele' phenomenon it has been recorded in many organisms and different genetic markers. ...
