We start by reviewing several results that have been obtained by the author concerning a general model of population growth in a randomly varying environment of the form dN /dt = (g(N ) + ฯ (N )ฮต(t)) N , where N = N (t) is the population size at time t. In this general model we have assumed that the
Environmental fluctuations can in theory allow the coexistence of ecologically similar species by 'timesharing' a niche, as envisioned by Hutchinson. The evolution of this situation is studied in a competition model, using as an example the evolution of seed germination strategies. Coexistence occur
