The paper investigates how insecticide resistance evolution and assisted gene flow affect phenotypic plasticity in Drosophila melanogaster, finding interactions that influence trait and plasticity evolution.

This study shows Drosophila melanogaster pigmentation adapts to temperature, competition, diet, and microbiome, indicating a complex selective landscape.

This study shows ecological stoichiometry and life history theory predict phenotypic adaptation in Drosophila, while genomic data fail to predict the SNPs and genes involved.

This study shows that host genetic variation, not microbiome evolution, primarily drives rapid adaptation to insecticide stress in Drosophila, with microbiomes playing a secondary role.

This study investigates whether winter conditions drive rapid adaptation in Drosophila and if there are trade-offs between insecticide resistance and overwintering survival.

Daphnia shows significant phenotypic plasticity in response to Microcystis exposure, but microbiome shifts are not correlated with the extent of this plasticity.

The study shows transgenerational epigenetic inheritance in Daphnia exposed to Microcystis leads to reduced survival and growth rates, contradicting the idea that it is generally adaptive.
