In biology, '''coevolution''' occurs when two or more species reciprocally affect each other's evolution through the process of natural selection. The term sometimes is used for two traits in the same species affecting each other's evolution, as well as gene-culture coevolution.在生物学中, 当两个或多个物种通过自然选择过程相互影响彼此各自的演化时,就会发生'''共同演化'''。该词语有时用于同一物种中存在相互影响和演化的两个特征,例如基因和文化的共同演化。

[[Charles Darwin]] mentioned evolutionary interactions between [[flowering plant]]s and [[insect]]s in ''[[On the Origin of Species]]'' (1859). Although he did not use the word coevolution, he suggested how plants and insects could evolve through reciprocal evolutionary changes. Naturalists in the late 1800s studied other examples of how interactions among species could result in reciprocal evolutionary change. Beginning in the 1940s, plant pathologists developed breeding programs that were examples of human-induced coevolution. Development of new crop plant varieties that were resistant to some diseases favored rapid evolution in pathogen populations to overcome those plant defenses. That, in turn, required the development of yet new resistant crop plant varieties, producing an ongoing cycle of reciprocal evolution in crop plants and diseases that continues to this day.

1859年,查尔斯·达尔文在他的著作''物种起源''中提到了被子植物和昆虫之间的进化互动。尽管他没有使用共同进化这个词,但他提出了植物和昆虫是如何通过相互的进化变化而进化的。19世纪晚期的博物学家研究了物种间的交互如何导致彼此演变的其他例子。从20世纪40年代开始的由植物病理学家开发的育种程序就是人类诱导共同进化的例子。培育能够抵抗某些疾病作物的新品种有利于病原体种群的快速进化以克服作物的这些抵御。这反过来又需要开发新的抗性作物品种,这样就造成了在作物和疾病之间的一个持续共同演化的循环;如是的循环一直持续到了今天。

Coevolution as a major topic for study in nature expanded rapidly after the middle 1960s, when Daniel H. Janzen showed coevolution between acacias and ants (see below) and [[Paul R. Ehrlich]] and [[Peter H. Raven]] suggested how [[Escape and radiate coevolution|coevolution between plants and butterflies]] may have contributed to the diversification of species in both groups. The theoretical underpinnings of coevolution are now well-developed (e.g., the geographic mosaic theory of coevolution), and demonstrate that coevolution can play an important role in driving major evolutionary transitions such as the evolution of sexual reproduction or shifts in ploidy. More recently, it has also been demonstrated that coevolution can influence the structure and function of ecological communities, the evolution of groups of mutualists such as plants and their pollinators, and the dynamics of infectious disease.

共同演化作为自然界研究的一个主要课题,在20世纪60年代中期之后迅速扩大,丹尼尔·H·詹森(Daniel H. Janzen)展示了金合欢和蚂蚁之间的共同演化(见下文),保罗·R·埃利希(Paul R. Ehrlich)和彼得·H·雷文(Peter H. Raven)提出植物和蝴蝶之间的共同演化可能促进了两个群体的物种多样化。如今共同进化的理论基础已经颇为成熟(例如共同进化的地理镶嵌理论),而且向我们表明了共同演化在推动主要的进化转变中扮演着重要的角色,例如有性生殖的演化或者倍性的变化。<ref name="Thompson, John N">{{Cite book|title=Relentless evolution|last=Thompson, John N.|isbn=978-0-226-01861-4|location=Chicago|oclc=808684836|date = 2013-04-15}}</ref><ref name="itct">{{cite book|last=Nuismer|first=Scott|date=2017|title=Introduction to Coevolutionary Theory|url=https://www.macmillanlearning.com/Catalog/product/introductiontocoevolutionarytheory-firstedition-nuismer/valueoptions|location=New York|publisher=W.F.

Each party in a coevolutionary relationship exerts [[evolutionary pressure|selective pressures]] on the other, thereby affecting each other's evolution. Coevolution includes many forms of [[mutualism (biology)|mutualism]], [[host–parasite coevolution|host-parasite]], and [[predation|predator-prey]] relationships between species, as well as [[intraspecific competition|competition within]] or [[interspecific competition|between species]]. In many cases, the selective pressures drive an [[evolutionary arms race]] between the species involved. '''Pairwise''' or '''specific coevolution''', between exactly two species, is not the only possibility; in '''multi-species coevolution''', which is sometimes called '''guild''' or '''diffuse coevolution''', several to many species may evolve a trait or a group of traits in reciprocity with a set of traits in another species, as has happened between the flowering plants and [[pollinator|pollinating]] insects such as [[bee]]s, [[fly|flies]], and [[beetle]]s. There are a suite of specific hypotheses on the mechanisms by which groups of species coevolve with each other.

共同演化关系中的每一方都会向对方施加选择压,从而影响彼此的演化。共同演化包括各种形式的互利共生、宿主-寄生、物种间的捕食-被捕食关系以及物种内部或物种间的竞争。在许多情况下,选择压驱动了相关物种之间进化的较量。在特定两个物种之间中,'''两两'''和'''单独'''的共同演化的存在并不是唯一的可能;在'''多物种共同演化''',有时被称为散协同演化中,几个到多个物种可能进化出同一个特征或同一组特征,这些特征与另一个物种的一系列特征相互作用,就像被子植物与蜜蜂、苍蝇和甲虫等传粉昆虫之间发生的情况那样。关于物种群之间共同进化的机制,有一套具体的假说。<ref name="Thompson, John N. 2005">{{Cite book|title=The geographic mosaic of coevolution|last=Thompson, John N.|date=2005|publisher=University of Chicago Press|isbn=978-0-226-11869-7|location=Chicago|oclc=646854337}}</ref>

At least three aspects of flowers appear to have coevolved between flowering plants and insects, because they involve communication between these organisms. Firstly, flowers communicate with their pollinators by scent; insects use this scent to determine how far away a flower is, to approach it, and to identify where to land and finally to feed. Secondly, flowers attract insects with patterns of stripes leading to the rewards of nectar and pollen, and colours such as blue and ultraviolet, to which their eyes are sensitive; in contrast, bird-pollinated flowers tend to be red or orange.

[[Hummingbird]]s and ornithophilous (bird-pollinated) flowers have evolved a [[mutualism (biology)|mutualistic]] relationship. The flowers have [[nectar]] suited to the birds' diet, their color suits the birds' vision and their shape fits that of the birds' bills. The blooming times of the flowers have also been found to coincide with hummingbirds' breeding seasons. The floral characteristics of ornithophilous plants vary greatly among each other compared to closely related insect-pollinated species. These flowers also tend to be more ornate, complex, and showy than their insect pollinated counterparts. It is generally agreed that plants formed coevolutionary relationships with insects first, and ornithophilous species diverged at a later time. There is not much scientific support for instances of the reverse of this divergence: from ornithophily to insect pollination.

蜂鸟和喜鸟类(鸟类传粉)的花进化出了一种互惠的关系。这些花的花蜜适合鸟类的饮食,它们的颜色适合鸟类的视觉,它们的形状适合鸟的喙。人们还发现,这些花的开放时间与蜂鸟的繁殖季节相吻合。与昆虫传粉密切相关的物种相比,喜鸟类植物的花部特征差异很大。这些花也往往比昆虫授粉的同类更华丽、复杂和艳丽。人们普遍认为,植物首先与昆虫形成共同进化关系,喜鸟类的物种在后期分化。没有多少科学证据支持这种分歧的相反的例子: 从鸟类学到昆虫授粉。喜鸟类物种花器官表型的多样性和蜜蜂传粉物种花器官表型的相对一致性可以归因于传粉者偏好的转变方向。

Flowers have converged to take advantage of similar birds. Flowers compete for pollinators, and adaptations reduce unfavourable effects of this competition. The fact that birds can fly during inclement weather makes them more efficient pollinators where bees and other insects would be inactive. Ornithophily may have arisen for this reason in isolated environments with poor insect colonization or areas with plants which flower in the winter. Bird-pollinated flowers usually have higher volumes of nectar and higher sugar production than those pollinated by insects.

花朵聚集在一起,利用同类鸟类的优势。花朵争夺传粉者,适应性减少了这种竞争的不利影响。鸟类可以在恶劣天气下飞行,这一事实使它们在蜜蜂和其他昆虫不活跃的地方成为更有效的授粉者。由于这个原因,鸟食现象可能出现在孤立的环境中,这些环境中的昆虫定居能力很差,或者在冬天有植物开花的地方。鸟类传粉的花朵通常比昆虫传粉的花朵有更多的花蜜和更高的糖分产量。这符合鸟类的高能量需求,最重要的决定因素花的选择。在蜜环菌中,花瓣中红色素的增加和花蜜体积的增加明显减少了蜜蜂授粉的比例,而蜂鸟则相反; 同时花朵表面积的增加增加了蜜蜂授粉。因此,红雀花中的红色色素可能主要起到抑制蜜蜂拜访的作用。在 Penstemon,阻碍蜜蜂授粉的花朵特征可能比“支持鸟类”的适应性对花朵进化变化的影响更大,但是“适应”鸟类和“远离”蜜蜂的适应性变化可以同时发生。然而,一些花,如棉铃虫似乎并不像人们想象的那样特别喜好鸟类: 这个物种偶尔(在120小时的观察中造访了151次)被无刺的 Trigona 蜜蜂采访。在这种情况下,这些蜜蜂大部分是花粉盗窃者,但也可能充当传粉者。

Following their respective breeding seasons, several species of hummingbirds occur at the same locations in [[North America]], and several hummingbird flowers bloom simultaneously in these habitats. These flowers have [[convergent evolution|converged]] to a common [[morphology (biology)|morphology]] and color because these are effective at attracting the birds. Different lengths and curvatures of the [[petal#Corolla|corolla]] tubes can affect the efficiency of extraction in hummingbird species in relation to differences in bill morphology. Tubular flowers force a bird to orient its bill in a particular way when probing the flower, especially when the bill and corolla are both curved. This allows the plant to place [[pollen]] on a certain part of the bird's body, permitting a variety of morphological [[co-adaptation]]s.<ref name="Stiles"/>

在各自的繁殖季节之后,几种蜂鸟出现在北美的同一地点,几种蜂鸟的花同时在这些栖息地开放。这些花汇聚到一个共同的形态和颜色,因为这些是有效地吸引鸟类。蜂鸟喙形态的不同决定了花冠管的长度和曲率对蜂鸟提取效率的影响。管状花朵使得鸟类在探测花朵时,尤其是当喙和花冠都是弯曲的时候,它们会以一种特殊的方式来确定喙的方位。这允许植物把花粉放在鸟身体的某一部分,允许各种形态上的协同适应。

喜鸟类的花对鸟类来说需要引人注目。鸟类在视觉光谱的红色一端拥有最大的光谱敏感度和最好的色调辨别能力,所以红色对它们来说特别显眼。蜂鸟也可以看到紫外线的“颜色”。在缺少花蜜的昆虫传粉的花朵中,紫外线图案和花蜜向导的流行警告鸟类要避开这些花。蜂鸟的两个亚科——隐士蜂鸟亚科(phaeethornithinae,hermits)和热带蜂鸟亚科(Trochilinae,Trochilinae)的每一个亚科都与一组特定的花一起进化。大多数种类与大型单子叶植物有关,而金线菊亚科更喜欢双子叶植物。
