| eq7xr_v1 | Individual-based eco-evolutionary framework: towards unifying ecology and evolution | Evolution is increasingly found to be rapid and entangled with ecological processes in complex eco-evolutionary dynamics, calling for a common conceptual framework. Yet, ecological and evolutionary theory remain largely separated, which constrains the development of integrative research. To overcome this separation, I suggest treating the entangled dynamics as a single eco-evolutionary process rather than as separate ecological and evolutionary processes connected by feedbacks. I propose a unified conceptual framework that integrates ecological and evolutionary processes at population and community levels by considering which of them result from the same individual-based process. The resulting framework is a means to understand the entangled dynamics through the interaction of five basic eco-evolutionary processes: natural selection, drift, dispersal, gene transfer, and mutation. The framework reveals relationships between existing theories and models, provides simple means to discuss complex dynamics, and outlines a holistic approach to major topics including diversity, stability, and stochasticity. The framework thus presents a step towards conceptually uniting ecology and evolutionary biology. | 2022-09-28T12:13:05.484346 | 2023-02-14T22:43:58.826193 | 2022-09-28T20:20:55.202903 | ecoevorxiv | 0 | withdrawn | 1 | 1 | https://doi.org/10.32942/osf.io/eq7xr | CC-By Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International | community; conceptual framework; eco-evolutionary dynamics; ecology; evolutionary biology; individual; organismal biology; population; rapid evolution | ["community", "conceptual framework", "eco-evolutionary dynamics", "ecology", "evolutionary biology", "individual", "organismal biology", "population", "rapid evolution"] | Jan Hrcek | [{"id": "89e4x", "name": "Jan Hrcek", "index": 0, "orcid": "0000-0003-0711-6447", "bibliographic": true}] | Jan Hrcek | Life Sciences; Ecology and Evolutionary Biology; Biodiversity | [{"id": "584240da54be81056cecaab0", "text": "Life Sciences"}, {"id": "584240da54be81056cecaaec", "text": "Ecology and Evolutionary Biology"}, {"id": "584240da54be81056cecac01", "text": "Biodiversity"}] | 0 | not_applicable | not_applicable | [] | 2025-04-09T20:49:44.790695 |
