Jun 10, 2013 · Overall, these results suggest that genetic factors that influence the development and functioning of the serotonin system shape primate social behavior. Serotonin-related genes therefore may be viewed as a valuable example of “candidate genes” that provide tractability to empirical questions about the interaction of genes, neural circuits, and social behavior.
The social system of a given species is an outcome of (1) its social structure, the size and composition of a typical group of that species, and (2) its social organization, how those individuals ...
