Titre : The unified neutral theory of biodiversity and biogeography Type de document : livre Auteurs : Stephen P. Hubbell, Auteur Editeur : Princeton, New Jersey : Princeton University Press Année de publication : 2001 Collection : Monographs in population biology, 32 Importance : 375 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-691-02128-7 Note générale : 3 ex.; ISBN-10 : 0-691-02128-7 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Biodiversity Biogeography Biological communities Evolution Mathematical models Population dynamics Résumé : Despite its supreme importance and the threat of its global crash, biodiversity remains poorly understood both empirically and theoretically. This ambitious book presents a new, general neutral theory to explain the origin, maintenance, and loss of biodiversity in a biogeographic context. Until now biogeography (the study of the geographic distribution of species) and biodiversity (the study of species richness and relative species abundance) have had largely disjunct intellectual histories. In this book, Stephen Hubbell develops a formal mathematical theory that unifies these two fields. When a speciation process is incorporated into Robert H. MacArthur and Edward O. Wilson's now classical theory of island biogeography, the generalized theory predicts the existence of a universal, dimensionless biodiversity number. In the theory, this fundamental biodiversity number, together with the migration or dispersal rate, completely determines the steady-state distribution of species richness and relative species abundance on local to large geographic spatial scales and short-term to evolutionary time scales. Although neutral, Hubbell's theory is nevertheless able to generate many nonobvious, testable, and remarkably accurate quantitative predictions about biodiversity and biogeography. In many ways Hubbell's theory is the ecological analog to the neutral theory of genetic drift in genetics. The unified neutral theory of biogeography and biodiversity should stimulate research in new theoretical and empirical directions by ecologists, evolutionary biologists, and biogeographers.

Titre : Levels of selection in evolution Type de document : livre Auteurs : Keller, L.(Ed.) Editeur : Princeton, New Jersey : Princeton University Press Année de publication : 1999 Collection : Monographs in behavior and ecology Importance : 318 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-691-00704-5 Note générale : 2 ex. Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Evolution Natural selection Résumé : Ever since the groundbreaking work of George Williams, W. D. Hamilton, and Richard Dawkins, evolutionary biologists have recognized that natural selection generally does not operate for the good of the group, but rather for the good of lower-level units such as the individual, the cell, even the gene. One of the fundamental problems of biology is: what keeps competition between these various levels of natural selection from destroying the common interests to be gained from cooperation? In this volume twelve prominent scientists explore this question, presenting a comprehensive survey of the current theoretical and empirical research in evolutionary biology. Recent studies show that at many levels of biological organization, mechanisms have evolved to prevent potential conflict in natural selection. Editor Laurent Keller's aim in this book is to bring together leading researchers from all biological disciplines to outline these potential conflicts and discuss how they are resolved. A multi-level approach of this kind allows important insights into the evolution of life, as well as bridging the long-standing conceptual chasm between molecular and organismal biologists. The chapters here follow a rigorous theoretical framework, giving the book an overall synergy that is unique to multi-authored books.
