Abstract
Spatial pattern dynamics in a lattice ecosystem composed of two species is studied. Depending on values of a parameter, the exchange of relationship b etween competition and symbiosis takes place. While interaction parameters between species are fixed, spatial distribution of species naturally evolve s into a specific pattern of either competition or mutualism. (C) 2001 Else vier Science B.V.
