Zusammenfassung
We discuss the evolution of diversifying reproduction.
We measured the average difference between mothers and
their children, the number of species, and the degree
of adaptation in evolving populations of endogenously
diversifying digital organisms using the Pushpop
system. The data show that the number of species in
adaptive populations is higher than in non-adaptive
populations, while the variance in the differences
between mothers and their children is less for adaptive
populations than for non-adaptive populations. In other
words, in adaptive populations the species were more
numerous and the diversification processes were more
reliable.
