Eco-evolutionary feedbacks, adaptive dynamics and evolutionary rescue theory.
Adaptive dynamics theory has been devised to account for feedbacks between ecological and evolutionary processes. Doing so opens new dimensions to and raises new challenges about evolutionary rescue. Adaptive dynamics theory predicts that successive trait substitutions driven by eco-evolutionary feedbacks can gradually erode population size or growth rate, thus potentially raising the extinctio...
متن کاملEco-evolutionary dynamics.
Evolutionary ecologists and population biologists have recently considered that ecological and evolutionary changes are intimately linked and can occur on the same time-scale. Recent theoretical developments have shown how the feedback between ecological and evolutionary dynamics can be linked, and there are now empirical demonstrations showing that ecological change can lead to rapid evolution...
متن کاملToward Evolutionary Innovation Theory
Abstract: Innovations, commercialized by new or old established firms, located at the core of industrial renewal process. The innovation concept has suffered transformations, along with the evolution of the models that try to explain and understand the innovation process. The innovative process corresponds to all activities that generate technological changes and the dynamic interaction between...

Innovations, commercialized by new or old established firms, located at the core of industrial renewal process. The innovation concept has suffered transformations, along with the evolution of the models that try to explain and understand the innovation process. The innovative process corresponds to all activities that generate technological changes and the dynamic interaction between them, not...
متن کاملPredator Percolation, Insect Outbreaks, and Phase Polyphenism
Apart from being notorious outbreak pests, locusts are of interest because of their expression of density-dependent "phase polyphenism." In this remarkable form of phenotypic plasticity, changes in local population density generate distinct solitarious and gregarious phases that differ in behavior, physiology, and appearance. A hallmark of phase polyphenism in outbreak species is the transition...
