Cancer risk and sexual conflict as constraints to body size evolution

E. Y. Erten, H. Kokko

The paper analyzes how cancer risk and sexual conflict constrain body size evolution by showing cancer can halt size increases and sexual dimorphism in life history traits can evolve independently of ecological factors.

Bird size with dinosaur-level cancer defences: can evolutionary lags during miniaturisation explain cancer robustness in birds?

E. Y. Erten, M. Tollis, H. Kokko

The paper models evolutionary lags in cancer defence retention during body size reduction in birds, showing how ancestral traits may explain cancer robustness and lifespan benefits.

Transmissible cancers and the evolution of sex under the Red Queen hypothesis

T. G. Aubier, M. Galipaud, E. Y. Erten, H. Kokko

This study evaluates whether transmissible cancers could drive the evolution of sex under the Red Queen hypothesis, finding that horizontal transmission reduces fluctuating selection, while vertical transmission promotes sex through similarity selection.

From zygote to a multicellular soma: body size affects optimal growth strategies under cancer risk

E. Y. Erten, H. Kokko

The paper models how body size influences optimal cellular strategies for growth and cancer risk, finding that large-bodied organisms have more robust strategies across size variations.
