A model is presented for the coevolution of several species in competition, each species being genetically variable at one locus with respect to this competition. A function was fund that is maximized during coevolution. This maximization principle was used in order to study the result of competition for a single resource on the utilization functions of the species competing for that resource. In particular, the conditions under which ecological character displacement can evolve were examined.
本文提出了一个关于多个竞争物种共同进化的模型,每个物种在一个基因座上相对于这种竞争具有遗传变异性。发现了一个在共同进化过程中最大化的函数。利用这个最大化原理来研究对单一资源的竞争结果对争夺该资源的物种利用函数的影响。特别地,研究了生态性状替代能够进化的条件。
