First sentence: The genetic structure of any population is expected or known to have profound consequences for the social behavior (e.g., Hamilton 1964; Wade and Breden, chap. 18, this vol.), the population dynamics (e.g., Lidicker 1975; Lidicker and Patton, chap. 10, and Gaines and Johnson, chap. 11, this vol.), and the tempo and mode of evolution characterizing a species (for reviews, see Mayr 1963; Wright 1978).
