The effect of fight cost structure on fighting behaviour involving simultaneous decisions and variable investment levels

Abstract: In the "producer-scrounger" model, a producer discovers a resource and is in turn discovered by a second individual, the scrounger, who attempts to steal it. This resource can be food or a territory, and in some situations, potentially divisible. In a previous paper we considered a producer and scrounger competing for an indivisible resource, where each individual could choose the level of energy that they would invest in the contest. The higher the investment, the higher the probability of success, but also t… Show more

“…The vast majority of theoretical studies on frequency-dependent selection and its role in maintaining genetic variation assume a small discrete number of genotypes. Often, only two or three alleles are assumed to produce a limited number of phenotypes (Sinervo & Lively 1996, McElreath & Strimling 2006, Wolf et al 2007, 2008, Harris et al 2008, Broom et al 2018, Christie et al 2018). These simple models of negative frequency-dependent selection are nevertheless very helpful in giving criteria for the maintenance or erosion of genetic variation, for example in small populations, under inbreeding, with temporal or spatial fluctuations in selection, or when overdominance in fitness is present.…”
