Field Studies
“The evidence argues that actual community food webs are extraordinarily more complex than those webs cataloged by theorists. I argue that most cataloged webs are over simplified caricatures of actual communities…that they poorly represent real biological communities. Consequently, the practice of abstracting empirical regularities from such catalogs yields an inaccurate and artifactual view of trophic interactions within communities. Contrary to strong assertions by many theorists, patterns from food webs of real communities generally do not support predictions arising from dynamic and graphic models of food-web structure.”
Polis 1991

Without IGP
Isocline of predator (species A)Isocline of prey (species B)
Polis et al. 1989
No IGP - A excludes B; IGP enhances A
No IGP - priority effect; IGP - dominance by A
No IGP – B excludes A; IGP – priority effect
No IGP - B excludes A; IGP - coexistence
Competitors coexist with no IGP; IGP A and B

Community Ecology Implications of IGP
Community structure Exclusion, coexistence, alternative stable
states (Polis et al. 1988, Holt and Polis 1997)
Resource use Superior competitors (Polis et al. 1989)
Direct vs. Indirect effects (Polis and Holt 1992)
Exclude or decrease resources Alter behavioral interactions
Trophic cascades (Polis and Holt 1992)
Predation impacts lower trophic levels

Legacy of IGP: Trophic Cascades
Addition of top predator, suppresses larvae, indirectly benefiting aphids.
Top predator addition can suppress herbivore population

structure and functioning of many natural communities; closer attention to it will
enrich our understanding of population and community ecology.” Polis et al.
