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.

Genomics of Developmental Plasticity in Animals [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2019 Developmental plasticity refers to the property by which the same genotype produces distinct phenotypes depending on the environmental conditions under which development takes place.

The phenotypic plasticity of developmental modules [PDF]
EvoDevo, 2016 Background Organisms develop and evolve in a modular fashion, but how individual modules interact with the environment remains poorly understood. Phenotypically plastic traits are often under selection, and studies are needed to address how traits ...

Developmental Plasticity in Child Growth and Maturation [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2011 The ability of a given genotype to produce different phenotypes in response to different environments is termed "plasticity", and is part of the organism's "adaptability" to environmental cues.

Developmental plasticity [PDF]
Evolution, Medicine, and Public Health, 2017 Developmental plasticity - the concept that adaptation to changing and unfavorable environmental conditions are possible but may come at the price of compromised health potentials - has evolutionary grounding as it facilitates survival but dissents with fundamental evolutionary principles in that it may advance the lesser fit.

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.

Developmental Plasticity in Plants [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology, 2012 As sessile organisms, plants are unable to seek out environmental conditions optimal for their growth and development but instead must complete their life cycles in the environment in which they are growing. However, plants are remarkably plastic, such that a single genotype is able to give rise to a wide range of phenotypes.

Matrix scaffolds for endometrium-derived organoid models
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023 The uterus-lining endometrium is essential to mammalian reproduction, receiving and accommodating the embryo for proper development. Despite its key role, mechanisms underlying endometrial biology (menstrual cycling, embryo interaction) and disease are ...

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]).

Disentangling sentience from developmental plasticity
Animal Sentience, 2023 Plants, like animals, display remarkable developmental plasticity, inviting the metaphorical use of terms like “decision” and “choice”. In the animal case, this is not taken to be evidence of sentience, because sentience is a complex product of ...
