摘要
The sensitivity of mutualistic communities to perturbations from equilibrium is examined, and the factors which regulate this sensitivity are discussed in both biological and mathematical terms. The response of equilibrium population densities to changes in environmental and biological parameters is also investigated. These investigations are then extended to include communities which allow for a limited form of competition. The results are discussed in terms of the familiar two species Lotka-Volterra equations. © 1979.
