In evolutionary biology, an evolutionary arms race is an ongoing struggle between competing sets of co-evolving genes, phenotypic and behavioral traits...

An arms race occurs when two or more groups compete in military superiority. It consists of a competition between two or more states to have superior...

of rearing young. This benefit comes at the cost of provoking an evolutionary arms race between parasite and host as they coevolve: many hosts have developed...

hypothesis shows that the evolutionary arms race between pathogenic bacteria and humans is a constant battle for evolutionary advantages in outcompeting...

predator and prey evolving to one another is sometimes termed an evolutionary arms race because the two species compete in developing adaptations and counter...

over the mode and frequency of mating, potentially leading to an evolutionary arms race between males and females. In one example, males may benefit from...

between species. In many cases, the selective pressures drive an evolutionary arms race between the species involved. Pairwise or specific coevolution,...

and chemicals. Sometimes predator and prey find themselves in an evolutionary arms race, a cycle of adaptations and counter-adaptations. Predation has been...

Didelphin opossums and crotaline vipers have been suggested to be in an evolutionary arms race. Some authors have suggested that this adaptation originally arose...

predator, the common garter snake. In this predator-prey pair, an evolutionary arms race has produced high levels of toxin in the newt and correspondingly...

unsupervised manner. GANs are similar to mimicry in evolutionary biology, with an evolutionary arms race between both networks. The original GAN is defined...

(evolution) – evidence of common descent – evolution – evolutionary arms race – evolutionary capacitance Evolution: of ageing – of the brain – of cetaceans...

selection. Consequently, the predators and prey will be locked in an evolutionary arms race, each looking to gain the upper hand on the other. The presence...

genetic variation affecting an organism's fitness stems from the co-evolutionary arms race between hosts and parasites. There are two nonmutually exclusive...

have developed ways to defend against these plant defenses (in an evolutionary arms race). One method of adapting to allomones is to develop a positive reaction...

Marcusenius macrolepidotus in this way. This has driven the prey, in an evolutionary arms race, to develop more complex or higher frequency signals that are harder...

the snake that are resistant to snake venom, prey that are in an evolutionary arms race with snakes, and the specific diets that affect the intraspecific...

select for ever more aggressive male sperm, however, leading to an evolutionary arms race. On the one hand, polyspermy creates inviable zygotes and lowers...

suggest that predators attacked in a selective manner, and the evolutionary arms race which this indicates is commonly cited as a cause of the Cambrian...

cycles seen in the north. Predation can result in coevolution – evolutionary arms race, prey adapts to avoid predator, predator evolves. For example, a...

interference. There is often a self-perpetuating co-evolution, or evolutionary arms race, between the perceptive abilities of animals attempting to detect...

of one sex mimic members of the other. Mimicry can result in an evolutionary arms race if mimicry negatively affects the model, and the model can evolve...

Evolutionary game theory (EGT) is the application of game theory to evolving populations in biology. It defines a framework of contests, strategies, and...

Galactic Arms Race (GAR) is a space shooter video game first released in 2010 by American studio Evolutionary Games in association with the Evolutionary Complexity...

the toxin (see figure).It seems that the two species were in an evolutionary arms race. While resistance to tetrodotoxin is beneficial in acquiring newt...

the Carboniferous and Permian periods, perhaps accelerated by an evolutionary "arms race" for increase in body size between plant-feeding Palaeodictyoptera...

predators sufficiently advanced to penetrate shells. A possible "evolutionary arms race" between predators and prey is one of the hypotheses that attempt...

recently emerged that are resistant even to these drugs. This is an evolutionary arms race, in which bacteria develop strains less susceptible to antibiotics...

[citation needed] For example, a fish and its parasites are in an evolutionary arms race, a form of coevolution, in which the fish constantly develops defenses...

major radiation events that mark diversification and speciation in the evolutionary history of Cetacea. The first occurred around the middle Eocene (40 Mya)...
