  3. In social animals, the formation of dominance hierarchy is essential for maintaining the stability and efficacy of social groups. A study by Wang and colleagues employ a combination of comparative genomic and functional approaches to shed new light on both the genetic mechanisms and the evolutionary histories of dominance behavior. Many animals ...

  5. Dominance hierarchy profoundly impacts social animals’ survival, physical and mental health and reproductive success. As the measurements of dominance hierarchy in rodents become established, it is now possible to understand the neural mechanism mediating the intrinsic and extrinsic factors determining social hierarchy.

  6. Jan 10, 2022 · After a century of research on dominance hierarchies, we are still left with many questions to explore about how and why dominance hierarchies change over time, and what impact these changes have on animal societies.

  7. Apr 29, 2005 · Dominance hierarchies occur in numerous social species, and rank within them can greatly influence the quality of life of an animal. In this review, I consider how rank can also influence physiology and health.
