Near-future warming amplifies natural heatwave impacts and reorganizes freshwater communities

The paper examines how near-future warming intensifies heatwave effects on freshwater communities by exceeding thermal thresholds and altering species interactions.

Terrestrial herbivory drives adaptive evolution in an aquatic community via indirect effects

The paper shows that terrestrial aphid herbivory indirectly drives adaptive evolution in aquatic Daphnia populations by altering macrophyte and phytoplankton dynamics.

Copper resistance predicts heritable transgenerational fitness variation in the clonal duckweed Spirodela polyrhiza

The study shows that copper resistance predicts transgenerational fitness variation in Spirodela polyrhiza, with susceptible genotypes showing greater offspring stress response but increased resistance.

Genome-Wide Association Study of Metabolic Traits in the Duckweed Spirodela polyrhiza

This study conducts a genome-wide association analysis to identify genetic factors influencing growth and metabolic traits in duckweed, revealing correlations between biomass and specific metabolites.

Herbivory can increase plant fitness via reduced interspecific competition. Evidence from models and mesocosms

This study shows herbivory can increase plant fitness by reducing interspecific competition, supported by models and mesocosm experiments.
