Abstract

The article presents a study on the efficient use of the eco-genetic models to explain the complexities of adaptation and to predict the anthropogenic impacts on natural resources. The use of the eco-genetic model has been viewed to be beneficial over the traditional life-history models because it can analyze the pathway of evolution. The eco-genetic model shows the reproduction and maturation cycle which can be used to explain the population structure of individuals.
