The contribution of seed dispersers to tree species diversity in tropical rainforests
(2015)
Tropical rainforests are known for their extreme biodiversity, posing a challenging problem in tropical ecology. Many hypotheses have been proposed to explain the diversity of tree species, yet our understanding of this ...
Sexual reproduction with variablemating systems can resist asexuality in a rock–paper–scissors dynamics
(The Royal Society, 2015)
While sex can be advantageous for a lineage in the long term, we still lack an explanation for its maintenance with the twofold cost per generation. Here we model an infinite diploid population where two autosomal loci ...
Exploring the evolution of a trade off between vigilance and foraging in group living organisms
(The Royal Society, 2015)
Even though grouping behaviour has been actively studied for over a century, the relative importance of the numerous proposed fitness benefits of grouping remain unclear. We use a digital model of evolving prey under ...
