@article{Parry2004TheMO, title={The meanings of r- and K-selection}, author={G. D. Parry}, journal={Oecologia}, year={2004}, volume={48}, pages={260-264} }
SummaryThis paper catalogues several different dichotomies that have all been termed r- and K-selection. The status of the concept of r- and K-selection is discussed and a more restricted usage of the terms is recommended.
