Resource diversity mitigates the effects of intraspecific competition in co-occurring cryptic nematode species
Intraspecific competition and resource diversity are considered major drivers of niche differentiation, which are expected to promote population niche expansion by driving individuals to feed on alternative resources and/or by enhancing individual diet specialization. Nevertheless, experimental stud...
