  315. consider whether communities represent a major transition in evolution - can&#13;
  316. particular community configurations evolve and maintain their integrity in the&#13;
  317. face of disruption arising from the self-interest of component individuals? This&#13;
  318. requires heritable variation among subcommunities in a landscape, and that&#13;
  319. alternative subcommunities maintain a degree of individuality in both time&#13;
  320. and space. Recently developed models show that spatial self-structuring in&#13;
  321. multispecies systems can meet both criteria and provide a rich substrate for&#13;
  322. community-level selection and a major transition in evolution.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" border="0" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Additional Information:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Definitive version available online at http://www.sciencedirect.com/</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Keywords:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">multilevel selection; community-level selection; communities; spatial structure; spatial self-organising; transitions in evolution </td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/270702.html">270000 Biological Sciences &gt; 270700 Ecology and Evolution &gt; 270702 Marine and Estuarine Ecology (incl.
