Indirect effects drive coevolution in mutualistic networks. Guimarães, P. R., Pires, M. M., Jordano, P., Bascompte, J., & Thompson, J. N. Nature, 550(7677):511–514, 2017. ![Indirect effects drive coevolution in mutualistic networks [link]](https://bibbase.org/img/filetypes/link.svg "link")
Paper doi abstract bibtex In the final pages of The Origin of Species, Charles Darwin presented the image of a tangled bank to evoke the constant interplay of plants and animals in an ecosystem. As each individual struggles to survive and reproduce, its efforts affect the whole ecosystem. It is a beautiful image, but much remains to be learned about the details of such effects. The selective pressures that shape intimate mutualisms between a plant and a specialist pollinator, for example, or the general behaviour of ecological networks, are well known, but less is understood about how selective pressures at various levels ripple through networks. Here, the authors integrate coevolutionary dynamics and network structure to show that selection in mutualisms is shaped not only by the mutualistic partners but by all sorts of indirect effects rippling across the tangled bank.
