Frequency-Dependent Selection Predicts Patterns of Radiations and Biodiversity
Figure 1
In each time step, first an individual dies. Second, parents are selected for reproduction (dotted square). Third, the dead individual is replaced by an offspring. Lastly, we recompute the species number and abundance. We then repeat the cycle. In this case the graph has two species with 5 (red circles) and 4 (blue circles) individuals.
