Selection: the mechanism of evolution
Abstract
Simple selection Selection on a single character Single episode of selection Selection of pre-existing variation Continued selection The Evolution of novelty Selection on several characters Selection acting on different components of fitness Selection in several environments Selection acting at different levels Autoselection Elements that utilize existing modes of transmission Elements that modify existing modes of transmission Social selection Selection within a single uniform population density-dependent selection Selection within a single diverse population frequency-dependent selection Selection among populations kin selection and group selection Coevolution Sexual selection.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
