The puzzle of sub-maximal resource use by a parasitoid wasp
Kathryn J. Montovan, Christelle Couchoux, Laura E. Jones +2
When there is conspicuous under-exploitation of a limited resource, it is worth asking what mechanisms allow presumably valuable resources to be left unused? Evolutionary biologist…
Individual behavioral rules sustain the cell allocation pattern in the combs of honey bee colonies (Apis mellifera)
Kathryn J. Montovan, Nathaniel J. Karst, Laura E. Jones +1
In the beeswax combs of honey bees, the cells of brood, pollen, and honey have a consistent spatial pattern that is sustained throughout the life of a colony. This spatial pattern…
Rapid contemporary evolution and clonal food web dynamics
Laura E. Jones, Lutz Becks, Stephen P. Ellner +3
Character evolution that affects ecological community interactions often occurs contemporaneously with temporal changes in population size, potentially altering the very nature of…
Effects of rapid prey evolution on predator-prey cycles
Laura E. Jones, Stephen P. Ellner
We study the qualitative properties of population cycles in a predator-prey system where genetic variability allows contemporary rapid evolution of the prey. Previous numerical stu…
Evolutionary tradeoff and equilibrium in an aquatic predator-prey system
Laura E. Jones, Stephen P. Ellner
Due to the conventional distinction between ecological (rapid) and evolutionary (slow)timescales, ecological and population models to date have typically ignored the effects of evo…
Modeling the effects of tetanus vaccination on chronically infected HIV patients
Laura E. Jones, Alan S. Perelson
T-cell activation plays a critical role in the initiation and propagation of HIV-1 infection and yet transient activation of the immune system is a normal response to immunization.…
