Abstract:In recent years, the widely distributed invasive parasitic species, sea lamprey, through its unique sex-influenced reproductive strategy, has had far-reaching impacts on host populations and aquatic ecosystems, highlighting the importance of species interactions in ecosystems and their importance to ecological balance. To address this, an EcoGenderDynamics model was developed to analyze the ecosystem effects of deviations in the sex ratio of sea lamprey populations. This study simulated the dynamic evolutionar… Show more
