<h2>Diffuse co-evolution </h2>
Explanation:
The term ‘diffuse co-evolution’ was given by Janzen in 1980 to describe the idea that selection on traits often reflects the actions of many community members, as opposed to pairwise interactions between species
The idea was further clarified by Gould in 1988 by focusing on a variety of ecological and genetic mechanisms that might lead to diffuse co-evolution in response to selection from multiple species
Diffuse co-evolution as a whole can be defined as when selection imposed reciprocally by one species on another is dependent on the presence or absence of other species
In the given example panic grass can live only when the fungus protuberata is present and for Curvularia protuberata to colonize Curvularia thermal tolerance virus must be present so there is a web of multiple species where one species is dependent on other species and that other species in turn is dependent on different species hence referred to as diffuse co-evolution
The results that have been produced from the improved agricultural practices are the following: increased biodiversity, increased productivity, and increased profits. Improved agricultural practices aim to produce food for consumers that are safe and wholesome. If these agricultural practices are improved and applied, there will be an increase in biodiversity as well as increased in productivity. If there is an increase in production, there is an increase in profits.
