This volume contains the papers presented at a symposium on popula
tion biology sponsored by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. It
was . held at the guest house of the University of Ttibingen at
Oberjoch on May 15-19, 1983. Prior to this conference a small group
of European biologists had met in Berlin (June 1981) and Pavia
(September 1982) to discuss re search problems on the borderline
between population genetics and evolutionary ecology. From the
contributions and discussions at these meetings it became evident
that the unification of approaches to evolutionary problems in
population genetics and evolutionary ecology has not yet been suc
cessful and requires further efforts. It was the consensus that a
larger symposium with international participation would be helpful
to con front and discuss the different approaches to population
biology in order to assess "where we are now" and "where we should
be going. " As a result an organizational committee was formed (F.
Christiansen, S. Jayakar, V. Loeschcke, W. Scharloo, and K.
W6hrmann) to iden tify topics that seemed, at least to them, to be
fruitful in tackling problems in population biology. Consequently,
a number of colleagues were asked to participate in the meeting. We
have divided this book into chapters corresponding to the eight
topics chosen. The volume begins with the relation between genotype
and phenotype and is followed by a chapter on quantitative genetics
and selection in natural populations."
