Spatial Demo-Genetic Predator–Prey Model for Studying Natural Selection of Traits Enhancing Consumer Motility

Abstract: Combining explicit modelling of predator movements with the Kostitzin demo-genetic equations, we study conditions promoting natural selection of consumer motility. The model is a system of partial differential equations describing spatial movements of predators pursuing the diffusing prey. Local predator–prey interactions are described by the classical Rosenzweig–MacArthur model, which additionally accounts for the Allee effect affecting reproduction of predators. Spatial activity of predators is determined by… Show more

“…Model ( 1)-( 4) is a modification of the system presented previously in [15,16], which did not consider effect of the cultivated plant but accounted for the genetic structure of the phytophagous population. Since apart from the weed there present also other plants in terrestrial ecosystems, inclusion of a cultivated plant in the model makes it more realistic and appropriate for solving applied problems of weed biocontrol.…”

“…Aside from the diffusive dispersal of densities of all modeled species, the advection term in the balance equation of the phytophage population density (3) describes directed movements of the insect density as indirect trophotaxis (prey taxis) toward gradient of the taxis stimulus S = S(t, x). Parameters ν, κ, and η determine intensity of the consumer taxis; see details in [15,16]. All parameters of the model are presented in Table 1, which also provides four sets of the parameter values that are used in numerical simulations discussed in the next chapters.…”

“…On the other hand, as a rule, fluctuations in abundance are caused by changes in the population structure caused by the combined effects of environmental factors and self-regulatory mechanisms [12][13][14]. Therefore, when modeling population dynamics, it is advisable to use an ecological-genetic approach that allows us to study the interconnected changes in the abundance and genetic structure of a population [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27].…”
