Evolution in stage-structured populations.
For many organisms, stage is a better predictor of demographic rates than age. Yet no general theoretical framework exists for understanding or predicting evolution in stage-structured populations. Here, we provide a general modeling approach that can be used to predict evolution and demography of stage-structured populations. This advances our ability to understand evolution in stage-structure...
متن کاملSocial evolution in structured populations.
Understanding the evolution of social behaviours such as altruism and spite is a long-standing problem that has generated thousands of articles and heated debates. Previous theoretical studies showed that whether altruism and spite evolve may be contingent on seemingly artificial model features, such as which rule is chosen to update the population (for example, birth-death or death-birth), and...
متن کاملstagePop: Modelling stage-structured populations in R
stagePop is an R package that can be used to model the deterministic dynamics and interactions of stage-structured populations. These are populations where the life cycle consists of distinct stages e.g. eggs, juveniles and reproductive adults. Explicitly including stage structure when modelling the population dynamics of stage-structured organisms can have an enormous effect on the resulting d...
متن کاملEvolution of extortion in structured populations
Extortion strategies can dominate any opponent in an iterated prisoner's dilemma game. But if players are able to adopt the strategies performing better, extortion becomes widespread and evolutionary unstable. It may sometimes act as a catalyst for the evolution of cooperation, and it can also emerge in interactions between two populations, yet it is not the evolutionarily stable outcome. Here ...
متن کاملEvolution of cooperation in spatially structured populations
Using a spatial lattice model of the Iterated Prisoner's Dilemma we studied the evolution of cooperation within the strategy space of all stochastic strategies with a memory of one round. Comparing the spatial model with a randomly mixed model showed that (1) there is more cooperative behaviour in a spatially structured population, (2) PAVLOV and generous variants of it are very successful stra...
