“…The costs and benefits of mutualism often depend on the environment where the interaction is studied (Hoeksema, 2010;Simonsen and Stinchcombe, 2014a), and there is growing evidence that global environmental change is altering the net outcome of mutualism to interacting partners (e.g., Shantz et al, 2016). The environment not only affects the net benefit to each individual, but has the potential to drastically alter the magnitude, direction, or type of selection acting on traits, as well as the expression of genetic variation in those traits (Wood and Brodie, 2016;Hayward et al, 2018;Lau and terHorst, 2019). For example, under more favorable conditions, the strength of selection acting on a trait often decreases (e.g., Garant et al, 2007), while the expression of genetic variance tends to increase (Charmantier and Garant, 2005).…”
