Current competition theory predicts that species must be ecologically distinct in order to stably coexist in the same community. This prediction is based on the implicit assumption that the consequences of sexual reproduction can be ignored. If anything, it is generally assumed that sex will only ad

Models of local small-scale ecological processes can be used to describe related processes at larger spatial scales if the influences of increased scale and heterogeneity are carefully considered. In this paper we consider the changes in the functional representation of an ecological process that ca
