Since its appearance in the 1980 volume of American Naturalist, Tilman's resource ratio hypothesis has attracted much attention. In this issue of Functional Ecology we are publishing a critical appraisal of the hypothesis, with a reply from Professor Tilman. We hope this Special Forum will stimulate further discussion, and we look forward to publishing a selection of readers' views in future issues. Editors
