Boxplot showing historical environment-specific divergence or convergence after Phase II. We measured the Difference between the end and start of phase II in the Absolute Phenotypic Difference (DADP, see Methods) for fitness (a, c) and growth rate (b, d) between any pair of populations (see Methods). Results are given for populations founded from Phase I population samples (a, b) and isolated clones (c, d). Population pairs are grouped based on the historical environments (for example, all comparisons between populations that evolved in Ace and Gly during the first phase are grouped in the Ace_Gly category). DAPD values below and above 0 indicate phenotypic convergence and divergence, respectively, during Phase II
