Figure 1 Should I stay or should I go? Fruit fly larvae are genetically programmed to either move extensively or very little in search of food. The alleles underlying these strategies are maintained by frequency-dependent selection: each confers higher fitness when it is the rarer strategy. (Photo credit: Mark Fitzpatrick.)
