Parasites Sustain and Enhance RNA-Like Replicators through Spatial Self-Organisation

In a prebiotic RNA world, parasitic behaviour may be favoured because template dependent replication happens in trans, thus being altruistic. Spatially extended systems are known to reduce harmful effects of parasites. Here we present a spatial system to show that evolution of replication is (indire...
