Two Locomotor Traits Show Different Patterns of Developmental Plasticity Between Closely Related Clonal and Sexual Fish

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
The capacity to compensate for environmental change determines population persistence and biogeography. In ectothermic organisms, performance at different temperatures can be strongly affected by temperatures experienced during early development.

Associations between leaf developmental stability, variability, canalization, and phenotypic plasticity in Abutilon theophrasti

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Developmental stability, canalization, and phenotypic plasticity are the most common sources of phenotypic variation, yet comparative studies investigating the relationships between these sources, specifically in plants, are lacking.

The Plasticity and Developmental Potential of Termites

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Phenotypic plasticity provides organisms with the potential to adapt to their environment and can drive evolutionary innovations. Developmental plasticity is environmentally induced variation in phenotypes during development that arise from a shared ...

FOXO regulates organ-specific phenotypic plasticity in Drosophila. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2011
Phenotypic plasticity, the ability for a single genotype to generate different phenotypes in response to environmental conditions, is biologically ubiquitous, and yet almost nothing is known of the developmental mechanisms that regulate the extent of a ...

Growing Pains: Opportunities to Adjust Phenotypic Trajectories in Childhood and Adolescence Complicate Studies of Developmental Plasticity in Late Homo

open access: yesPaleoAnthropology, 2022
Developmental plasticity, the ability to regulate aspects of development in response to environmental cues, is hypothesized to evolve in response to environmental heterogeneity and may facilitate dispersal, novel habitat occupation, and niche ...

Coding Odorant Concentration through Activation Timing between the Medial and Lateral Olfactory Bulb

open access: yesCell Reports, 2012
In mammals, each olfactory bulb (OB) contains a pair of mirror-symmetric glomerular maps organized to reflect odorant receptor identity. The functional implication of maintaining these symmetric medial-lateral maps within each OB remains unclear.

Rapid and continuous activity-dependent plasticity of olfactory sensory input

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
New olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) wire into olfactory bulb circuits throughout life. Here, the authors show that newly generated OSNs form highly dynamics synapses and can elicit functional responses in OB neurons, while mature OSNs retain a high ...

Establishment of inclusive single-cell transcriptome atlases from mouse and human tooth as powerful resource for dental research

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Single-cell (sc) omics has become a powerful tool to unravel a tissue’s cell landscape across health and disease. In recent years, sc transcriptomic interrogation has been applied to a variety of tooth tissues of both human and mouse, which has ...

Characterization of NGF, trkANGFR, and p75NTR in Retina of Mice Lacking Reelin Glycoprotein

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cell Biology, 2014
Both Reelin and Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) exert crucial roles in retinal development. Retinogenesis is severely impaired in E-reeler mice, a model of Reelin deficiency showing specific Green Fluorescent Protein expression in Rod Bipolar Cells (RBCs ...

Sensitive windows for within- and trans-generational plasticity of anti-predator defences

open access: yesPeer Community Journal, 2023
Transgenerational plasticity could be an important mechanism for adaptation to variable environments in addition to within-generational plasticity. But its potential for adaptation may be restricted to specific developmental windows that are highly ...
