Genetic Regulation of Phenotypic Plasticity and Canalisation in Yeast Growth. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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]

open access: yes, 2020
Thermal phenotypic plasticity, otherwise known as acclimation, plays an essential role in how organisms respond to short-term temperature changes.

Phenotypic plasticity promotes lymph nodes metastasis and drug resistance in lung squamous cell carcinomas

open access: yesHeliyon, 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 ...

The Genetic Architecture for Phenotypic Plasticity of the Rice Grain Ionome

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
The ionome of the rice grain is crucial for the health of populations that consume rice as a staple food. However, the contribution of phenotypic plasticity to the variation of rice grain ionome and the genetic architecture of phenotypic plasticity are ...

Fluctuating population dynamics promotes the evolution of phenotypic plasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Phenotypic Plasticity in Vertebrate Dentitions [PDF]

open access: yesIntegrative and Comparative Biology, 2020
SynopsisVertebrates interact directly with food items through their dentition, and these interactions with trophic resources could often feedback to influence tooth structure. Although dentitions are often considered to be a fixed phenotype, there is the potential for environmentally induced phenotypic plasticity in teeth to extensively influence their

The conceptual structure of evolutionary biology: A framework from phenotypic plasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In this review, I approach the role of phenotypic plasticity as a key aspect of the conceptual framework of evolutionary biology. The concept of phenotypic plasticity is related to other relevant concepts of contemporary research in ...

Drivers of population differentiation in phenotypic plasticity in a temperate conifer: A 27‐year study

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2022
Phenotypic plasticity is a main mechanism for organisms to cope with changing environments and broaden their ecological range. Plasticity is genetically based and can evolve under natural selection, such that populations within a species show distinct ...

Domestication reduces phenotypic plasticity in chaya (Cnidoscolus aconitifolius (Mill.) I.M. Johnst)

open access: yesBotan‪ical Sciences, 2021
Background: Natural selection optimizes phenotypic plasticity in plants found in environmentally variable habitats. However, it is unclear how artificial selection has affected the phenotypic plasticity of crops.

Effectiveness of Polyphenols on Perinatal Brain Damage: A Systematic Review of Preclinical Studies

open access: yesFoods, 2023
Polyphenol supplementation during early life has been associated with a reduction of oxidative stress and neuroinflammation in diseases caused by oxygen deprivation, including cerebral palsy, hydrocephaly, blindness, and deafness. Evidence has shown that
