Dissecting the dynamics of epigenetic changes in phenotype-structured populations exposed to fluctuating environments.

Journal of theoretical biology - 7 Dec 2015

Lorenzi Tommaso, Chisholm Rebecca H, Desvillettes Laurent, Hughes Barry D

Abstract excerpt

An enduring puzzle in evolutionary biology is to understand how individuals and populations adapt to fluctuating environments. Here we present an integro-differential model of adaptive dynamics in a phenotype-structured population whose fitness landscape evolves in time due to periodic environmental oscillations. The analytical tractability of our model allows for a systematic investigation of the relative...
