Dynamic effects of interacting genes underlying rice flowering-time phenotypic plasticity and global adaptation

open access: yesGenome Research, 2020
The phenotypic variation of living organisms is shaped by genetics, environment, and their interaction. Understanding phenotypic plasticity under natural conditions is hindered by the apparently complex environment and the interacting genes and pathways.

The New Nitric Oxide Donor, FOR 911B, Induces Relaxation in Isolated Rat Aorta Involving the NO/sGC/cGMP Pathway and K+ Channels

open access: yesReceptors
Background: Nitric oxide (NO) is a gaseous molecule considered to be a protagonist in the dilation of blood vessels, and its property and/or bioavailability are reduced in pathophysiological conditions such as cardiovascular diseases.

Phenotypic robustness can increase phenotypic variability after non-genetic perturbations in gene regulatory circuits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Non-genetic perturbations, such as environmental change or developmental noise, can induce novel phenotypes. If an induced phenotype confers a fitness advantage, selection may promote its genetic stabilization. Non-genetic perturbations can thus initiate

New Insights Into the Role of Phenotypic Plasticity and EMT in Driving Cancer Progression

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2020
Tumor cells demonstrate substantial plasticity in their genotypic and phenotypic characteristics. Epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity (EMP) can be characterized into dynamic intermediate states and can be orchestrated by many factors, either ...

Cardiovascular and Renal Effects Induced by Alpha-Lipoic Acid Treatment in Two-Kidney-One-Clip Hypertensive Rats

open access: yesBiomedicines
α-Lipoic acid (LA) is an antioxidant of endogenous production, also obtained exogenously. Oxidative stress is closely associated with hypertension, which causes kidney injury and endothelial dysfunction.

Plasticity leaves a phenotypic signature during local adaptation

open access: yesEvolution Letters, 2020
Phenotypic responses to a novel or extreme environment are initially plastic, only later to be followed by genetic change. Whether or not environmentally induced phenotypes are sufficiently recurrent and fit to leave a signature in adaptive evolution is ...

ΔTraitSDMs: species distribution models that account for local adaptation and phenotypic plasticity.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2019
Improving our understanding of species ranges under rapid climate change requires application of our knowledge of the tolerance and adaptive capacity of populations to changing environmental conditions.

Phenotypic plasticity and experimental evolution [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2006
SUMMARYNatural or artificial selection that favors higher values of a particular trait within a given population should engender an evolutionary response that increases the mean value of the trait. For this prediction to hold, the phenotypic variance of the trait must be caused in part by additive effects of alleles segregating in the population, and ...

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.
