title: [The effect of optimal harvesting on the dynamics of size and genetic composition of a two-age population].
abstract: The effect of optimal stationary harvesting at a constant harvest rate on the dynamics of a two-age population is considered. It has been shown analytically that harvesting a fixed rate of the population size of only one age cohort is optimal. As has been observed, the maximum of revenue function is unattainable in the case of concurrent harvesting of both age cohorts. It has been demonstrated that the direction of natural selection does not explicitly change when unselectively harvesting individuals; however, the adaptive genetic diversity of an unharvested population can be lost due to harvesting.
