Single-cell trait diversity explains niche and fitness differences in aquatic microbial communities

Simone Fontana, Désirée A. Schmitz, Michael Daniels…·Frank Schreiber

The paper measures single-cell trait diversity in lake microbial communities and finds it correlates with ecosystem functioning, while genetic diversity does not.

Resource supply drives even spacing of individuals along multiple trait axes in light-limited phytoplankton populations

Simone Fontana, Mridul K. Thomas, Marta Reyes, Francesco Pomati

The paper experiments with two phytoplankton species under light gradients, showing resource limitation leads to even spacing of phenotypes in trait space.
