Data for: Briddon et al (2025) "Evolution under competition increases phytoplankton productivity by reducing the density-dependence of net energy fluxes and growth" - published in Ecology & Evolution

Experimental evolution of three phytoplankton species under either intraspecific (monoculture) or interspecific competition (polyculture).Species are: Dunaliella tertiolecta (RCC6), Amphidinium carterae (RCC88), Tisochrysis lutea (RCC90) from Roscoff Culture Collection. All data were collected during two common garden experiments performed at week 9 (originally called "CG2") and week 17 ("CG3") of experimental evolution.Data collected are:population density: cells/ulcell volume: um3population biovolume = density x size: um3/ulpopulation photosynthesis P_J_min measured in a 5ml vialpopulation respiration DM_J_min measured in a 5 ml vial<br>
