Definition

  • The concept of coevolution has been introduced by the biological sciences where it refers to a series of reciprocal steps during which two or more ecologically associated species interact with one another and influence each other's evolution. Coevolution occurs because individual agents or groups of organisms, over time, benefit from a continuing interaction.
