Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid evolution drives ecological dynamics in a predator–prey system
Takehito Yoshida,Laura E. Jones,Stephen P. Ellner,Gregor F. Fussmann,Gregor F. Fussmann,Nelson G. Hairston +5 more
TL;DR: It is reported that rapid prey evolution in response to oscillating predator density affects predator–prey (rotifer–algal) cycles in laboratory microcosms, and that attempts to understand population oscillations in nature cannot neglect potential effects from ongoing rapid evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Eco‐evolutionary dynamics of communities and ecosystems
TL;DR: The few empirical studies on community dynamics that explicitly considered evolutionary processes support the view that evolutionary and ecological dynamics often occur on similar time-scales, and that they co-determine the dynamical behaviour of ecological communities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crossing the Hopf Bifurcation in a Live Predator-Prey System
TL;DR: The dynamical behavior of a two-species aquatic laboratory community encompassing the interactions between a demographically structured herbivore population, a primary producer, and a mineral resource, yet still amenable to description and parameterization using a mathematical model is studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution as a critical component of plankton dynamics
TL;DR: It is shown here that density–dependent natural selection has a direct and measurable effect on a planktonic predator–prey interaction and suggests that a similar amalgam of ecological and evolutionary mechanisms may drive the dynamics of rapidly reproducing organisms in the wild.
Journal ArticleDOI
Community response to enrichment is highly sensitive to model structure.
Gregor F. Fussmann,Bernd Blasius +1 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the degree of resource enrichment needed to destabilize the community dynamics depends critically on the mathematical nature of the uptake function.
