Linking the fundamental and realized niches in ahypersaline consumer-resource system

The paper investigates how salinity affects algal growth, grazer survival, and interaction strength in a hypersaline system, finding that ecological responses to salinity are evolvable and influence the relationship between fundamental and realized niches.

Adaptation to complex environments is associated with higher fitness costs under benign conditions

This study shows that adaptation to complex environments with multiple stressors leads to lower fitness gains and higher fitness reductions under benign conditions compared to single stressors.

Linking selection to demography in experimental evolution of active death in a unicellular organism

The paper examines how selection operates on programmed cell death in a unicellular organism under environmental stress, finding that PCD is maintained despite population declines.
