Intrapopulation Metabolic Variation Reflects Growth Differences: A Cross-Sectional Study on Gammarides.

Puntos clave

• This research aims to explore how metabolic variation relates to growth differences within gammarides populations.
• Used H NMR spectroscopy to analyze individual metabolic states.
• Focused on identifying anabolic pathways connected to growth phenotypes.
• Examined population dynamics under changing environmental conditions.
• Identified specific metabolic states linked to different growth phenotypes.
• Demonstrated that performance varied depending on phenotype in fluctuating environments.
