Frequency-dependent numerical dynamics in mosquitofish.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Nov 2002

Horth Lisa, Travis Joseph

Abstract excerpt

Altering the genetic composition of a population can alter several aspects of its numerical dynamics. Whether natural populations routinely contain the genetic variation capable of affecting the stability of those dynamics is less clear. Here we report a study of experimental populations of mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki), designed to examine this issue. The experiment examined the numerical effects of varying...
