Local negative frequency-dependence can decrease global coexistence in fragmented populations

2025-05-21

Abstract excerpt

Most biological populations are rich in diversity, and negative frequency-dependent (NFD) selection is a well-established mechanism thought to underlie this stable coexistence of multiple variants. Recent studies confirm its widespread presence at local spatial scales, however it remains unclear whether these local-scale dynamics are sufficient to maintain biodiversity across larger, landscape-level scales. While...
