- In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic behavior of individual-based models describing the evolution of a population structured by a real trait, subject to selection and mutation. We consider two different sets of assumptions: first, the case of critical or subcritical branching population processes in a regime combining a discretization of the trait space, small mutations, large time and large initial population size, where we are able to characterize using a Hamilton-Jacobi approach, the survival set of the population, and the asymptotic of the logarithmic scaling of subpopulation sizes. Second, we generalize by a direct method the convergence to the classical Hamilton-Jacobi equation obtained in the super-critical branching regime considered in \cite{CMMT} to a more general trait space and under weaker assumptions. Moreover, we establish that the stochastic and the deterministic dynamics are asymptotically equivalent in large population.
