The evolution of niche overlap and competitive differences
Competition can result in evolutionary changes to coexistence between competitors but
there are no theoretical models that predict how the components of coexistence change …

When ecology fails: how reproductive interactions promote species coexistence
That species must differ ecologically is often viewed as a fundamental condition for their
stable coexistence in biological communities. Yet, recent work has shown that ecologically …

Rapid evolution of life‐history traits in response to warming, predation and competition: A meta‐analysis
Although studies quantifying evolutionary change in response to the selective pressures that
organisms face in the wild have demonstrated that organisms can evolve rapidly, we lack a …

Integrating eco‐evolutionary dynamics and modern coexistence theory
Community ecology typically assumes that competitive exclusion and species coexistence
are unaffected by evolution on the time scale of ecological dynamics. However, recent …

Niche differences, not fitness differences, explain predicted coexistence across ecological groups
Understanding the drivers of species coexistence is essential in ecology. Niche and fitness
differences (ie how species limit themselves compared to others and species' differences in …

Nutrient enrichment undermines invasion resistance to Spartina alterniflora in a saltmarsh: Insights from modern coexistence theory
The ability of native communities to maintain invasion resistance in the face of
environmental changes is crucial for biodiversity conservation. However, previous studies …

MacArthur's consumer-resource model: a Rosetta Stone for competitive interactions
Recent developments in competition theory—namely, modern coexistence theory (MCT)—
have aided empiricists in formulating tests of species persistence, coexistence, and …

Native plant species show evolutionary responses to invasion by Parthenium hysterophorus in an African savanna
AMO Oduor - New Phytologist, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Invasive plant species often competitively displace native plant species but some
populations of native plant species can evolve adaptation to competition from invasive …

Competitive history shapes rapid evolution in a seasonal climate
Eco-evolutionary dynamics will play a critical role in determining species' fates as climatic
conditions change. Unfortunately, we have little understanding of how rapid evolutionary …

Rapid evolution promotes fluctuation‐dependent species coexistence
Recent studies have demonstrated that rapid contemporary evolution can play a significant
role in regulating population dynamics on ecological timescales. Here we identify a …
