  1. Recent studies demonstrate that ecological and evolutionary processes can occur over similar temporal and spatial scales and might thus frequently interact. Although concepts such as the evolving metacommunity, diffuse (co)evolution and community genetics integrate multi-species dynamics, most experimental studies usually consider how evolution affects only one focal species. Hence, our understanding of evolution in multi-species communities is still underdeveloped.
  2. We highlight key community and evolutionary mechanisms and their interactions to facilitate a broader understanding of evolution in multi-species communities. We propose a framework that explicitly considers interactions between each of the four analogous processes of evolutionary biology (selection, gene flow, genetic drift and mutation) and community ecology (species sorting, dispersal, ecological drift and speciation).
  3. Focusing on interactions between processes of evolutionary biology and community ecology enables explorations of the full range of eco-evolutionary dynamics in multi-species communities and guides the design of novel experiments. Furthermore, the proposed framework develops a shared language between evolutionary biologists and community ecologists and indicates new research avenues.
  4. Overall, we propose that explicitly incorporating interactions between these evolutionary and community processes to study eco-evolutionary dynamics in multi-species communities will better inform broader questions about the maintenance of diversity and the resilience of diverse communities to disturbances, both natural and manmade.

整合基本过程以了解生态进化社区动态和模式

  1. 最近的研究表明,生态和进化过程可以发生在相似的时间和空间尺度上,因此可能经常相互作用。尽管进化元群落、扩散(共同)进化和群落遗传学等概念整合了多物种动力学,但大多数实验研究通常考虑进化如何仅影响一个焦点物种。因此,我们对多物种群落进化的理解仍然不完善。
  2. 我们强调关键的社区和进化机制及其相互作用,以促进对多物种社区进化的更广泛理解。我们提出了一个框架,明确考虑进化生物学(选择、基因流动、遗传漂移和突变)和群落生态学(物种分类、扩散、生态漂移和物种形成)的四个类似过程中的每一个之间的相互作用。
  3. 关注进化生物学和群落生态学过程之间的相互作用,可以探索多物种群落中全方位的生态进化动力学,并指导新实验的设计。此外,提议的框架在进化生物学家和社区生态学家之间开发了一种共享语言,并指明了新的研究途径。
  4. 总的来说,我们建议明确地结合这些进化和群落过程之间的相互作用来研究多物种群落的生态进化动态,将更好地了解有关维护多样性和多样化群落对自然和人为干扰的恢复能力的更广泛问题。
