Phenotypic plasticity segregates antagonistic species but undermines their coexistence

Diya Elizabeth Shaji, Muhammed Hadi, Yashraj Chavhan

The paper shows that environmental-induced phenotypic plasticity can promote coexistence in antagonistic bacterial species by spatial segregation, but removing this segregation leads to higher coexistence through adaptive plasticity.

Population size shapes trade-off dilution and adaptation to a marginal niche unconstrained by sympatric habitual conditions

Yashraj Chavhan, Sarthak Malusare, Sutirth Dey

This study shows larger populations of E. coli adapt better to both habitual and marginal niches, with habitual niche composition not constraining adaptation to marginal niches.
