Classic studies of resource competition by Gause (1934, 1935) Paramecium caudatum Paramecium aurelia Paramecium bursaria

Classic studies of resource competition by Gause (1934, 1935) Gause found that interactions between Paramecium aurelia and P. caudatum always ended in competitive exclusion.

Competitive exclusion “experimental” evidence

Classic studies of resource competition by Gause (1934, 1935) Gause found that interactions between Paramecium aurelia and P. caudatum always ended in competitive exclusion. Within 14 days Paramecium aurelia WON!

Classic studies of resource competition by Gause (1934, 1935) In contrast, Paramecium bursia and P. caudatum could coexist. Paramecium bursaria Paramecium caudatum

Classic studies of resource competition by Gause (1934, 1935) WHY? In contrast, Paramecium bursia and P. caudatum could coexist. Paramecium bursaria Paramecium caudatum

Classic studies of resource competition by Gause (1934, 1935) Because they inhabited different regions of the flask and ate different food. P. bursia fed on the bottom of the flask, and P. caudatum ate the bacteria in suspension.

Classic studies of resource competition by Gause (1934, 1935) In contrast, both P. aurelia and P. caudatum ate the bacteria in suspension.

Gause’s Principle (Law) When the niches* of two species overlap, there will be competition; and, if the overlap is extreme, there will be competitive exclusion. *Niche = the ranges of conditions and resources within which an organism or species persists.

Gause’s Principle (Law) When the niches* of two species overlap, there will be competition; and, if the overlap is extreme, there will be competitive exclusion. This is also called the Competitive Exclusion Principle

Competition (-/-) is central to both evolutionary theory and ecological theory: Competition can be a powerful selection pressure _in the long run_i.e. evolutionary Competition affects the structures of communities _in the short run_i.e. ecological

Resource competition can only occur when the same resource are used_overlapping of niche. If resources are in limiting supply.
