Evolutionary Paths Caused by Feedback between Environment and Finite Population

JX Han, RW Wang - arXiv preprint arXiv:2309.03093, 2023 - arxiv.org
Natural selection imply that any organisms including human being will evolve to improve its
fitness advantage and the selected genotype or phenotype in equilibrium state will not vary …

[PDF][PDF] Effects of environmental feedback on species with finite population

JX Han, RW Wang - Iscience, 2024 - cell.com
In an unchanging environment, natural selection always selects species with high fitness. In
this study, we build a co-evolutionary system to study the interaction between stochasticity in …

Continual evolution through coupled fast and slow feedbacks

MT Wortel, H Peters, JA Bonachela… - Proceedings of the …, 2020 - National Acad Sciences
Continual evolution describes the unceasing evolution of at least one trait involving at least
one organism. The Red Queen Hypothesis is a specific case in which continual evolution …

[PDF][PDF] Evolutionary Theory Based on Ecological Change

C Xinyu - Adv Bioeng Biomed Sci Res, 2023 - opastpublishers.com
The impact of ecological balance on biological evolution has been largely underestimated
for a long time. It has not been noticed that the auto-regulation of ecosystems can change …

The impact of environmental fluctuations on evolutionary fitness functions

A Melbinger, M Vergassola - Scientific reports, 2015 - nature.com
The concept of fitness as a measure for a species' success in natural selection is central to
the theory of evolution. We here investigate how reproduction rates which are not constant …

Asymmetric evolutionary games with environmental feedback

C Hauert, C Saade, A McAvoy - Journal of theoretical biology, 2019 - Elsevier
Abstract Models in evolutionary game theory traditionally assume symmetric interactions in
homogeneous environments. Here, we consider populations evolving in a heterogeneous …

Weak selection and stochastic evolutionary stability in a stochastic replicator dynamics

C Li, T Feng, Y Tao, X Zheng, J Wu - Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2023 - Elsevier
It is a very challenging problem whether natural selection is able to effectively resist the
continuous disturbance of environmental noise such that the direction or outcome of …

Evolutionary Fitness in Variable Environments

A Melbinger, M Vergassola - arXiv preprint arXiv:1505.04471, 2015 - arxiv.org
One essential ingredient of evolutionary theory is the concept of fitness as a measure for a
species' success in its living conditions. Here, we quantify the effect of environmental …

Origins of evolution: Non-acquired characters dominates over acquired characters in changing environment

C Gaucherel, HJ Jensen - Journal of theoretical biology, 2012 - Elsevier
Natural Selection is so ubiquitous that we never wonder how it appeared as the evolution
rule driving Life. We usually wonder how Life appeared, and seldom do we make an explicit …

Evolutionary stability under limited population growth: Eco-evolutionary feedbacks and replicator dynamics

K Argasinski, M Broom - Ecological Complexity, 2018 - Elsevier
This paper further develops a new way of modelling evolutionary game models with an
emphasis on ecological realism, concerned with how ecological factors determine payoffs in …
