Kin recognition: Neurogenomic response to mate choice and sib mating avoidance in a parasitic wasp.

Sib mating increases homozygosity, which therefore increases the risk of inbreeding depression. Selective pressures have favoured the evolution of kin recognition and avoidance of sib mating in numerous species, including the parasitoid wasp Venturia canescens. We studied the female neurogenomic res...
