| Abstract | Species evolve in communities with other species. However, tracking evolution in those complex communities is difficult. This project will examine how community context alters species evolution. Using new techniques in whole-genome analyses, this research will determine how different communities alter the fitness effects across the entire genome. This research bridges the fields of ecology, evolution, and microbiology to provide insight into how the evolutionary process may occur in the complex |
