Chaotic Red Queen coevolution in three-species food chains.
Coevolution between two antagonistic species follows the so-called 'Red Queen dynamics' when reciprocal selection results in an endless series of adaptation by one species and counteradaptation by the other. Red Queen dynamics are 'genetically driven' when selective sweeps involving new beneficial mutations result in perpetual oscillations of the coevolving traits on the slow evolutionary time ...
متن کاملRed Queen Coevolution on Fitness Landscapes
Species do not merely evolve, they also coevolve with other organisms. Coevolution is a major force driving interacting species to continuously evolve exploring their fitness landscapes. Coevolution involves the coupling of species fitness landscapes, linking species genetic changes with their inter-specific ecological interactions. Here we first introduce the Red Queen hypothesis of evolution ...
متن کاملVirus-host coevolution, killing the winner, and the Red Queen
Viruses are the most abundant replicating entities on Earth, with an estimated 1030 virus particles in Earth's oceans alone (Suttle, 2005). Viruses play an important role in the marine carbon cycle, by viral mortality effects on the food web and by the `viral shunt' of material from higher to lower trophic levels (Fuhrman, 1999). Understanding the ecological and evolutionary interactions betwee...
متن کاملChaotic provinces in the kingdom of the Red Queen.
The interplay between parasites and their hosts is found in all kinds of species and plays an important role in understanding the principles of evolution and coevolution. Usually, the different genotypes of hosts and parasites oscillate in their abundances. The well-established theory of oscillatory Red Queen dynamics proposes an ongoing change in frequencies of the different types within each ...
متن کاملRed Queen strange attractors in host–parasite replicator gene-for-gene coevolution
We study a continuous time model describing gene-for-gene, host–parasite interactions among self-replicating macromolecules evolving in both neutral and rugged fitness landscapes. Our model considers polymorphic genotypic populations of sequences with 3 bits undergoing mutation and incorporating a ‘‘type II’’ non-linear functional response in the host–parasite interaction. We show, for both fit...
