In biology, co-adaptation, or coadaptation refers to the mutual adaptation of: * Species: see mutualism, symbiosis. This is generally termed coevolution. * Traits, often at different levels of biological organization. For example, ecophysiology and evolutionary physiology have focused on the coadaptation of behavior with physiology (e.g., 〔Huey, R. B., and A. F. Bennett. 1987. Phylogenetic studies of coadaptation: preferred temperatures versus optimal performance temperatures of lizards. Evolution 41:1098–1115.〕〔Garland, T., Jr., T. 1999. Laboratory endurance capacity predicts variation in field locomotor behaviour among lizard species. Animal Behaviour 57:77–83.〕〔Angilletta Jr, M. J., A. F. Bennett, H. Guderley, C. A. Navas, F. Seebacher, and R. S. Wilson. 2006. Coadaptation: a unifying principle in evolutionary thermal biology. Physiological and Biochemical Zoology 79:282–294.〕). * Organs: see the evolution of the eye. * Genes or gene complexes: see Linkage disequilibrium, epistasis These are types of evolutionary adaptation because they involve cross-generational changes in the genetic compositions of populations in response to natural selection. ==Examples of Coevolution== * The fig and the fig wasp. * ''Myrmica sabuleti'' and the Large Blue butterfly 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Co-adaptation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
