Monomorphic Evolution
A population consisting of individuals with the same trait is called monomorphic. If not explicitly stated differently, we will assume that the trait is a real number, and we will write r and m for the trait value of the monomorphic resident population and that of an invading mutant, respectively.

Famous quotes containing the word evolution:
“By contrast with history, evolution is an unconscious process. Another, and perhaps a better way of putting it would be to say that evolution is a natural process, history a human one.... Insofar as we treat man as a part of nature—for instance in a biological survey of evolution—we are precisely not treating him as a historical being. As a historically developing being, he is set over against nature, both as a knower and as a doer.”
—Owen Barfield (b. 1898)
