Table 1 . Basic demographic information for the construction of
integral projection models (IPMs). The construction of IPMs depends on
four fundamental relationships (phenotype-demographic functions) that
describe the associations between the phenotype and survival, the
phenotype and the ontogeny of the phenotype (change) among survivors,
the phenotype and fertility, and the probability density distribution of
offspring phenotypes given parental phenotypes (i.e., heritability). Variables in bracket represent those in
the proposed IPM.
