The eco-evolutionary dynamics of microbial communities are predicted to affect both the tempo and trajectory of evolution in constituent species. While community composition determines available niche space, species sorting dynamically alters composition, changing over time the distribution of vacant niches to which species adapt, altering evolutionary trajectories. Competition for the same niche can limit evolutionary potential if population size and mutation supply are reduced but, alternatively, could stimulate evolutionary divergence to exploit vacant niches if character displacement results from the coevolution of competitors. Under more complex ecological scenarios, species can create new niches through their exploitation of complex resources, enabling others to adapt to occupy these newly formed niches. Disentangling the drivers of natural selection within such communities is extremely challenging, and it is thus unclear how eco-evolutionary dynamics drive the evolution of constituent taxa. We tracked the metabolic evolution of a focal species during adaptation to wheat straw as a resource both in monoculture and in polycultures wherein on-going eco-evolutionary community dynamics were either permitted or prevented. Species interactions accelerated metabolic evolution. Eco-evolutionary dynamics drove increased use of recalcitrant substrates by the focal species, whereas greater exploitation of readily digested substrate niches created by other species evolved if on-going eco-evolutionary dynamics were prevented. Increased use of recalcitrant substrates was associated with parallel evolution of tctE, encoding a carbon metabolism regulator. Species interactions and species sorting set, respectively, the tempo and trajectory of evolutionary divergence among communities, selecting distinct ecological functions in otherwise equivalent ecosystems. Living in a multispecies community accelerated bacterial metabolic evolution Species sorting altered the trajectory of metabolic evolution between communities Eco-evolutionary dynamics drove increased use of hard-to-digest substrate niches This was linked to mutation of tctE, encoding a regulator of carbon metabolism Evans et al. show that living in a multispecies community accelerates metabolic evolution of a focal bacterium adapting to lignocellulose as a resource. Eco-evolutionary community dynamics prevent the focal species evolving to exploit the metabolic activity of its competitors, instead driving its adaptation to use hard-to-digest substrate niches.
