No local adaptation despite environmental heterogeneity in naturally coevolving Daphnia –parasite mesocosms

2026-03-16

Abstract excerpt

Local adaptation (LA) is expected to arise when populations evolve higher fitness in their local environment than migrants, particularly in heterogeneous environments and coevolving host–parasite systems. Such adaptation can influence species interactions, including competition and parasitism, and is often predicted to help populations cope with environmental change. However, how LA to environmental conditions aff...
