New Phytologist, 2021 Understanding constraints to phenotypic plasticity is key given its role on the response of organisms to environmental change. It has been suggested that phenotypic integration, the structure of trait covariation, could limit trait plasticity.

Life, 2022 The phenotypic plasticity hypothesis suggests that exotic plants may have greater phenotypic plasticity than native plants. However, whether phenotypic changes vary according to different environmental factors has not been well studied.

Phenotypic plasticity underlies local invasion and distant metastasis in colon cancer
eLife, 2021 Phenotypic plasticity represents the most relevant hallmark of the carcinoma cell as it bestows it with the capacity of transiently altering its morphological and functional features while en route to the metastatic site. However, the study of phenotypic

Ecological adaptation in European eels is based on phenotypic plasticity
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021 Significance Populations within a species may experience genetic adaptation to local environmental conditions while individuals may tolerate variation in environmental conditions due to phenotypic plasticity.

Drivers of dynamic intra-tumor heterogeneity and phenotypic plasticity.
American Journal of Physiology - Cell Physiology, 2021 Cancer is a clonal disease, i.e. all tumor cells within a malignant lesion trace their lineage back to a precursor somatic cell that acquired oncogenic mutations during development and aging.

Role of Renin-Angiotensin System Components in Atherosclerosis: Focus on Ang-II, ACE2, and Ang-1–7
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Atherosclerosis is the leading cause of vascular disease worldwide and contributes significantly to deaths from cardiovascular complications. There is a remarkably close relationship between atherosclerotic plaque formation and the activation of renin ...

Genetic Regulation of Phenotypic Plasticity and Canalisation in Yeast Growth. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The ability of a genotype to show diverse phenotypes in different environments is called phenotypic plasticity. Phenotypic plasticity helps populations to evade extinctions in novel environments, facilitates adaptation and fuels evolution.

Intraspecific variation in thermal acclimation and tolerance between populations of the winter ant, Prenolepis imparis. [PDF]
, 2020 Thermal phenotypic plasticity, otherwise known as acclimation, plays an essential role in how organisms respond to short-term temperature changes.

Heliyon, 2023 Background: Phenotypic plasticity (PP) is a major promoter of tumor metastasis and drug resistance. Nevertheless, the molecular features and clinical significance of phenotypic plasticity in lung squamous cell carcinomas (LSCC) remained largely ...

Fluctuating population dynamics promotes the evolution of phenotypic plasticity [PDF]
, 2007 An increasing number of studies are showing evidence in support of sympatric speciation. One basic question remains, however. When a population has undergone a branching in its phenotype, is this due to an evolutionary branching in the underlying ...
