Coevolution can reverse predator-prey cycles.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 20 May 2014

Cortez Michael H, Weitz Joshua S

Abstract excerpt

A hallmark of Lotka-Volterra models, and other ecological models of predator-prey interactions, is that in predator-prey cycles, peaks in prey abundance precede peaks in predator abundance. Such models typically assume that species life history traits are fixed over ecologically relevant time scales. However, the coevolution of predator and prey traits has been shown to alter the community dynamics of natural...
