Developmental plasticity at high temperature [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2019 A severe consequence of climate change is global warming with heat waves occurring across the world, including in many important agricultural production areas ([Lobell et al., 2011][1]; [Sun et al., 2014][2]; [Christidis et al., 2015][3]; [Lesk et al., 2016][4]).

Signalling for developmental plasticity [PDF]
Trends in Plant Science, 2004 We describe some of the regulatory mechanisms found in the signalling networks that mediate plant plasticity in response to the environment. In the absence of the relevant environmental cue, the response is often actively repressed at multiple levels, including chromatin structure, mRNA stability and protein degradation.

A Developmental Switch for Hebbian Plasticity. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2015 Hebbian forms of synaptic plasticity are required for the orderly development of sensory circuits in the brain and are powerful modulators of learning and memory in adulthood.

Decoding the activated stem cell phenotype of the neonatally maturing pituitary
eLife, 2022 The pituitary represents the endocrine master regulator. In mouse, the gland undergoes active maturation immediately after birth. Here, we in detail portrayed the stem cell compartment of neonatal pituitary.

A Robust Mammary Organoid System to Model Lactation and Involution-like Processes
Bio-Protocol, 2021 The mammary gland is a highly dynamic tissue that changes throughout reproductive life, including growth during puberty and repetitive cycles of pregnancy and involution. Mammary gland tumors represent the most common cancer diagnosed in women worldwide.

Effect of competitive cues on reproductive morphology and behavioral plasticity in male fruitflies [PDF]
, 2015 Phenotypic plasticity will be favored whenever there are significant fitness benefits of responding to environmental variation. The extent and nature of the plasticity that evolves depends on the rate of environmental fluctuations and the capacity to ...

Primary Mammary Organoid Model of Lactation and Involution
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Mammary gland development occurs mainly after birth and is composed of three successive stages: puberty, pregnancy and lactation, and involution. These developmental stages are associated with major tissue remodeling, including extensive changes in ...

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021 Developmental plasticity can elicit phenotypic adjustments that help organisms cope with environmental change, but the relationship between developmental plasticity and plasticity in adult life (e.g., acclimation) remains unresolved. We sought to examine
