Properties of phenotypic plasticity in discrete threshold traits
Evolution; international journal of organic evolution, 2021 Forms of phenotypic plasticity in key traits, and forms of selection on and genetic variation in such plasticity, fundamentally underpin phenotypic, population dynamic, and evolutionary responses to environmental variation and directional change ...

Evolutionary 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)
Botanical 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.

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

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

Transgressivity in Key Functional Traits Rather Than Phenotypic Plasticity Promotes Stress Tolerance in A Hybrid Cordgrass [PDF]
, 2019 Hybridization might promote offspring fitness via a greater tolerance to environmental stressors due to heterosis and higher levels of phenotypic plasticity.

Phenotypic Plasticity: From Theory and Genetics to Current and Future Challenges
Genetics, 2020 Phenotypic plasticity is defined as the property of organisms to produce distinct phenotypes in response to environmental variation. While for more than a century, biologists have proposed this organismal feature...

The evolution of neurosensation provides opportunities and constraints for phenotypic plasticity
Scientific Reports, 2022 Phenotypic plasticity is widely regarded as important for enabling species resilience to environmental change and for species evolution. However, insight into the complex mechanisms by which phenotypic plasticity evolves in nature is limited by our ...

Foraging environment determines the genetic architecture and evolutionary potential of trophic morphology in cichlid fishes [PDF]
, 2016 Phenotypic plasticity allows organisms to change their phenotype in response to shifts in the environment. While a central topic in current discussions of evolutionary potential, a comprehensive understanding of the genetic underpinnings of plasticity is

The genetics of phenotypic plasticity in nematode feeding structures [PDF]
Open Biology, 2017 Phenotypic plasticity has been proposed as an ecological and evolutionary concept. Ecologically, it can help study how genes and the environment interact to produce robust phenotypes.
