CONT

The unique genetic characteristics of individuals in each species ultimately determine whether or not any species can invade and be present in a particular community. Genetic traits also determine the species abundance and the rate and timing of its return to and disappearance from communities disturbed by fire, storms, insect herbivory, and other sudden impacts.
