Coevolution increases robustness to extinctions in mutualistic but not antagonistic communities

This study shows coevolution enhances robustness in mutualistic communities but reduces it in antagonistic ones, due to changes in interaction density.

Effects of habitat destruction on coevolving metacommunities

This study investigates how habitat destruction affects coevolutionary dynamics in metacommunities and shows that coevolution can mitigate negative effects in mutualistic networks but has unpredictable impacts on antagonistic communities.

The role of indirect effects in coevolution as mutualism transitions into antagonism

This study shows that as mutualistic networks shift to antagonistic, indirect effects weaken, leading to less trait integration and faster adaptation in communities.

The joint role of coevolutionary selection and network structure in shaping trait complementarity in mutualisms.

This study simulates coevolution in different network topologies to show how mutualistic selection strength and network structure jointly influence trait complementarity in mutualisms.

Determining which mechanisms underlie facilitation by tussocks in tropical high mountains and their relative importance

This study identifies temperature amelioration as the primary mechanism by which tussocks facilitate plant survival in tropical high mountains, while also noting competitive effects on growth.
