This study shows that evolutionary rescue in toxic metal combinations depends on metal interactions, with antagonistic combinations leading to broader fitness benefits than synergistic ones.

The paper quantifies metal interaction effects on yeast growth using two metrics, finding nonadditive toxicity patterns linked to redox properties and gene overlap.

This study investigates cross-tolerance to metals in yeast by evolving lines to single metals and testing their tolerance to others, finding unpredictable patterns and genetic bases.
