The paper shows that niche differentiation enables coexistence among early diverging lineages of duckweed before speciation completes, suggesting ecological factors influence speciation.

The paper investigates how co-introduced microbes affect host colonization success and finds that non-local microbes reduce host performance.

The paper shows that range-edge populations can adapt to warming only when evolving with interspecific competitors, enabling both high-temperature tolerance and broader thermal performance.

This study tests if interspecific competition during range expansion leads to pushed wave dynamics and alters evolutionary patterns in duckweed species.

This paper argues for embracing heterogeneity in preclinical research to improve reproducibility and generalizability through meta-analysis of phenotypic variability in ischaemic stroke models.
