Analysis of Evolutionary Processes: The Adaptive Dynamics Approach and Its ApplicationsPrinceton University Press, 2008. 2. 11. - 360페이지 Quantitative approaches to evolutionary biology traditionally consider evolutionary change in isolation from an important pressure in natural selection: the demography of coevolving populations. In Analysis of Evolutionary Processes, Fabio Dercole and Sergio Rinaldi have written the first comprehensive book on Adaptive Dynamics (AD), a quantitative modeling approach that explicitly links evolutionary changes to demographic ones. The book shows how the so-called AD canonical equation can answer questions of paramount interest in biology, engineering, and the social sciences, especially economics. |

... contrast, Chapter 3 is the key chapter of the book. There we sketch all the steps that lead to the formal derivation of the AD canonical equation and discuss the mechanisms of evolutionary branching and extinction (the mathematical ...
... contrast with the hypothesis of creation in final state and prepared the ground for evolutionary theory. A considerable contribution came from Georges-Louis Leclerc Buffon (1707–1788), author of a compendium of biological history, and ...
... contrast, the genotype of an individual is a particular genome realization, given by the chromosomes carried by the individual. Notice that in asexual species and in sexual haploid species the genotype is identified by one chromosome ...
... contrast, continuous phenotypes are typically influenced by many genes and by the environmental conditions as well. The map between genotypes and phenotypes can be astonishingly complex and in most cases it is not yet completely ...
... contrast, the genotypic distribution cannot be inferred from the phenotypic distribution because, as we have seen in Section 1.2, the genotype-to-phenotype map is not invertible. Unfortunately, we have also seen that such a map is ...
