Abstract:Eco-evolutionary processes play a key role shaping the invasion dynamics of populations expanding in new habitats. The expansion process is driven by co-evolving species traits, in particular, those traits related to body dimensions, competitive skills, movement abilities controlling also their responses to landscape heterogeneity gradients. Typically, individuals who invest more in the development of their traits related to the dispersal strategy reduce investment in reproduction. Thus, there are two possible… Show more
