MOLECULAR EVOLUTION. “Whether a high rate of molecular evolution is a cause or consequence of sociality, it will certainly give rise to the evolution of new genes or new gene functions through gene duplication, single nucleotide substitutions, insertions or deletions. There is already evidence for this as some conserved genes have novel functions in social animals.”
