Transgenerational effects of UV-B radiation on egg size, fertilization, hatching and larval size of sea urchins Strongylocentrotus intermedius [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
Transgenerational effects are important for phenotypic plasticity and adaptation of marine invertebrates in the changing ocean. Ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation is an increasing threat to marine invertebrates.

Interactions Between Maternal, Paternal, Developmental, and Immediate Environmental Effects on Anti-predator Behavior of the Snail Physa acuta

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Transgenerational plasticity, which occurs when the environment experienced by parents changes the phenotype of offspring, is widespread in animal and plant species.

Ocean acidification challenges copepod phenotypic plasticity [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2016
Ocean acidification is challenging phenotypic plasticity of individuals and populations. Calanoid copepods (zooplankton) are shown to be fairly plastic against altered pH conditions, and laboratory studies indicate that transgenerational effects are ...

Progressive, transgenerational changes in offspring phenotype and epigenotype following nutritional transition [PDF]

, 2011
Induction of altered phenotypes during development in response to environmental input involves epigenetic changes. Phenotypic traits can be passed between generations by a variety of mechanisms, including direct transmission of epigenetic states or by ...

Transgenerational plasticity following a dual pathogen and stress challenge in fruit flies. [PDF]

BMC Evol Biol, 2016
Background: Phenotypic plasticity operates across generations, when the parental environment affects phenotypic expression in the offspring. Recent studies in invertebrates have reported transgenerational plasticity in phenotypic responses of offspring ...

An Epigenetic Signature for Within-Generational Plasticity of a Reef Fish to Ocean Warming

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Elevated temperature can have detrimental effects on the physiological performance of many marine organisms. However, phenotypic plasticity may enable some populations to maintain their performance under thermal stress.
