infants cross-fostered to nurturant females actually appeared to be behaviourally precocious.
… These individuals became especially adept at recruiting and retaining other group
members as allies in response to agonistic encounters and, perhaps as a consequence, they

good mothers had no problems whatsoever. They turned out as well or better than monkeys
who had the other version of this gene.” (Note also that the link between the short allele of
the SERT gene and depression in humans is well discussed but somewhat controversial.)
