From: Trade-offs drive resource specialization and the gradual establishment of ecotypes

Figure 4

Simulation resulting in the four ecotypes shown in Table 5.(A) Fitness as a function of time for each of the four ecotypes (blue, red, green, cyan) and the population mean fitness (black). (B) Phylogram showing the evolutionary relationship between the four ecotypes. N=1000, μ=0.05, λ=10-3, σ1=1, σ2=0.1, starting with a homogeneous population of specialists with affinity equal to 0.1 for the first resource and zero for the rest.
