Summary
Whereas many current models of population interactions explore food web dynamics where individuals at a higher trophic level forage on individuals on the lower trophic level and compete with individuals at the same trophic level there are many other interactions not considered by such food web models 66 These latter interactions include eg hostparasitoid hostpathogen and plantpollinator interactions We will study effects of behavioural ecological andor evolutionary dynamics on biodiversity in such interaction networks We will combine methods of EGT with differential equations as well as agentbased simulations that allow for heterogeneity in a range of individual characteristics
