Transgenerational plasticity research: Challenges and opportunities

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Transgenerational plasticity (TGP) is a type of non‐genetic inheritance whereby one generation's environment affects a subsequent generation's phenotype. It can influence the persistence of organisms in stressful climatic conditions through allowing rapid phenotypic ...

Spatial context allows the evolution of the control of nitrification by plants

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, EarlyView.
Using a theoretical approach, we show that assuming that the effects of the control of nitrification are spatially restricted to the rhizosphere, the control of nitrification is likely to be selected in perennial plants and ecosystems in which nitrate losses are greater than ammonium losses. The selected strategy optimizes biomass production.

Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Invasive foundress finds suitable habitat and reproduces through pathogenesis. Wingless females produce life offspring quickly, which leads to high population densities. High population densities result in competition, which may induce epigenetic changes and wing development for dispersal.
