When similar species coexist, they often evolve differences to reduce competition, a process called character displacement. This study provides rare evidence of character displacement in action, showi...

Abstract. Dietary change can be a strong evolutionary force and lead to rapid adaptation in organisms. High-fat and high-sugar diets can challenge key meta
