Introduction:
In nature, we rarely find isolated, single individuals of any species , majority of them live in groups in a well defined geographical area, share or compete for similar resources , potentially inte breed and thus constitute of population. Although the term interbreeding implies sexual reproduction, a group of individuals resulting from even asexual reproduction is also generally considered a population for the purpose of ecological studies. All the cormorants in a wetland , rats in the abandoned dwelling, teak wood trees in a forest tract , bacteria in a culture plate and lotus plants in a pond are some example of population. Population ecology is important area because it links ecology to population genetics and evolution.
