Application of a New Model of Species Competition to Drosophila

Predictive Modeling of Mixed Microbial Populations in Food Products: Evaluation of Two-species Models

“…(Note that in case of model 7, three intersections are only possible when both isoclines are either convex or concave.) For model 8, multiple intersections are impossible despite the curved shape of the isoclines (Coleman & Gomatam, 1972). In contrast with models 4, 5 and 7, there are limitations concerning the nature of each critical point in the "rst quadrant for models 6 and 9.…”

“…However, a considerable number of communities seem inadequately described by model 3, amongst which are salamanders (Wilbur, 1972), microcrustaceans (Neill, 1974), lizards (Schoener, 1974) and Drosophila (Ayala et al, 1973). For this reason, alternatives to this classical logistic-based competition model have been proposed by Ayala et al (1973) (models 4}7), Coleman & Gomatam (1972) (model 8) and Schoener (1976) (model 9).…”

“…This phenomenon was later suggested by Ross et al (2000) to be called as Jameson effect. Many models have been implemented to describe autonomous, continuous-time, two species evolution, based on data from liquid microbiological media and real foods (Volterra, 1931;Lotka, 1956;Dubois et al, 1972;Coleman and Gomatam, 1972;Ayala et al, 1973;Schoener, 1976;McLean and Nowak, 1992;Dens et al, 1999;Vereecken et al, 2000). Additionally, several studies have been performed that prove this theory in liquid media (Buchanan and Klawitter, 1992;Foegeding et al, 1992;Buchanan and Bagi, 1997;Schillinger et al, 1998;Buchanan and Bagi, 1999;Devlieghere et al, 2001;Pleasants et al, 2001;Szigeti, 2001;Greer and Dilts, 2006), in structured media (Antwi et al, 2007) and in food model systems (Winkowski and Montville, 1992;Jeppesen and Huss, 1993;Winkowski et al, 1993;Breidt and Fleming, 1998;Duffes et al, 1999;Palmai and Buchanan, 2002;Jacobsen et al, 2003;Nilsson et al, 2005;Vermeiren et al, 2006), although the simultaneous effect of the incubation temperature and the inoculum level of the co-cultured species has not been addressed yet.…”
