Coexistence of complete competitors with fitness inequality
There was a long standing contradiction between formulations of the competitive exclusion principle and natural species richness, which is known as the biodiversity paradox. Here we investigate a role of fitness differences in coexistence of two completely competing species using individual-based cellular automata. According to the classical formulations of the competitive exclusion principle s...
متن کاملPreemption of space can lead to intransitive coexistence of competitors
Intransitive competition has the potential to be a powerful contributor to species coexistence, but there are few proposed biological mechanisms that could create intransitivities in natural communities. Using a three-species model of competition for space, we demonstrate a mechanism for coexistence that combines a colonization–competition tradeoff between two species with the ability of a thir...
متن کاملCoexistence and spread of competitors in heterogeneous landscapes.
Competition between species is ubiquitous in nature and therefore widely studied in ecology through experiment and theory. One of the central questions is under which conditions a (rare) invader can establish itself in a landscape dominated by a resident species at carrying capacity. Applying the same question with the roles of the invader and resident reversed leads to the principle that "mutu...
متن کاملHeteromyopia and the spatial coexistence of similar competitors
David J. Murrell* and Richard Law NERC Centre for Population Biology, Imperial College at Silwood Park, Ascot, Berkshire, SL5 7PY, UK Biology Department, York University, PO Box 373, York YO10 5YW, UK *Correspondence: E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Most spatial models of competing species assume symmetries in the spatial scales of dispersal and interactions. This makes analysis tractable, ...
متن کاملPlant coexistence mediated by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
Recent research has indicated the importance of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in mediating plant coexistence. Coarse-scale studies compare the effects of the presence versus absence of AMF on plant coexistence, a phenomenon that is most relevant in early successional ecosystems where AMF are patchily distributed. By contrast, fine-scale studies investigate interactions that might occur onc...
