Evolution of species trait through resource competition.

Abstract excerpt

To understand the evolution of diverse species, theoretical studies using a Lotka-Volterra type direct competition model had shown that concentrated distributions of species in continuous trait space often occurs. However, a more mechanistic approach is preferred because the competitive interaction of species usually occurs not directly but through competition for resource. We consider a chemostat-type model...
