A phase transition induces chaos in a predator-prey ecosystem with a dynamic fitness landscape.

In many ecosystems, natural selection can occur quickly enough to influence the population dynamics and thus future selection. This suggests the importance of extending classical population dynamics models to include such eco-evolutionary processes. Here, we describe a predator-prey model in which t...
