Abstract:Adaptation to novel environments have been documented at the population, phenotype and genotype level. However, the ecological consequences of this process are often ignored. For example, recent evolutionary history in different environments is expected to lead to increased growth rates and competitive abilities. These traits have been identified as key ingredients underlying species coexistence, which suggests that adaptation to new environments may shape species coexistence patterns. However, this hypothesis… Show more
