Evolutionary Dynamics at the Leading Edge of Biological Invasions.

Bulletin of mathematical biology - 4 Mar 2026

Poloni Silas, Lutscher Frithjof, Lewis Mark A

Abstract excerpt

Empirical evidence shows that evolution may take place during species' range expansion. Indeed, dispersal ability tends to be selected for at the leading edge of invasions, ultimately increasing a species' spreading speed. However, for organisms across many different taxa, higher dispersal comes at the cost of fitness, producing evolutionary trade-offs at the leading edge. Using reaction-diffusion equations and...
