Appendix: Relevance of Evolutionary History For Food Web Structure
The analyzed food webs were heavily simplified by the filter we used to re2 tain only those nodes with complete taxonomic information. In order to 3 investigate how this affected the reliability of our results, we performed two 4 additional analysis. First, we took the two food webs which were most de5 pleted: Stony (65.5% of the original nodes retained) and ElVerde (44.8% of 6 the original nod...
متن کاملRelevance of evolutionary history for food web structure.
Explaining the structure of ecosystems is one of the great challenges of ecology. Simple models for food web structure aim at disentangling the complexity of ecological interaction networks and detect the main forces that are responsible for their shape. Trophic interactions are influenced by species traits, which in turn are largely determined by evolutionary history. Closely related species a...

متن کاملA general model for food web structure.
A central problem in ecology is determining the processes that shape the complex networks known as food webs formed by species and their feeding relationships. The topology of these networks is a major determinant of ecosystems' dynamics and is ultimately responsible for their responses to human impacts. Several simple models have been proposed for the intricate food webs observed in nature. We...
متن کاملStructure and evolutionary history of DISC1.
Evolutionary and protein structural analyses can provide functional insights into genes implicated in human psychiatric diseases. Even eukaryotic organisms lacking nervous systems contain homologues of many key signalling molecules of animal neurons implying that human cognition derives, in part, from modifications of ancestral molecules and complexes. One protein whose evolutionary origin is o...
