Separating Paternal and Maternal Contributions to Thermal Transgenerational Plasticity

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Climate change is rapidly altering the thermal environment in terrestrial and aquatic systems. Transgenerational thermal plasticity (TGP) – which occurs when the temperatures experienced by the parental generation prior to the fertilization of gametes ...

Parental experience modifies the Mimulus methylome

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2018
Background Transgenerational plasticity occurs when the environmental experience of an organism modifies the growth and development of its progeny.

Long-Term Overgrazing-Induced Memory Decreases Photosynthesis of Clonal Offspring in a Perennial Grassland Plant

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Previous studies of transgenerational plasticity have demonstrated that long-term overgrazing experienced by Leymus chinensis, an ecologically dominant, rhizomatous grass species in eastern Eurasian temperate grassland, significantly affects its clonal ...

Higher, Faster, Better: Maternal Effects Shorten Time Lags and Increase Morphological Defenses in Daphnia lumholtzi Offspring Generations

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Prey species can respond to the presence of predators by inducing phenotypic plastic traits which form morphological, life history or behavioral defenses. These so-called inducible defenses have evolved within a cost-benefit framework.

Transgenerational exposure to marine heatwaves ameliorates the lethal effect on tropical copepods regardless of predation stress

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are emerging as a severe stressor in marine ecosystems. Extreme warm sea surface temperatures during MHWs often exceed the optimal thermal range for more than one generation of tropical coastal zooplankton.

Within-generation and transgenerational social plasticity interact during rapid adaptive evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The effects of within-generation plasticity versus transgenerational plasticity on trait expression are poorly understood, but important for evaluating plasticity's evolutionary consequences.

Paternal hypoxia exposure primes offspring for increased hypoxia resistance

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2022
Background In a time of rapid environmental change, understanding how the challenges experienced by one generation can influence the fitness of future generations is critically needed.

Transgenerational plasticity through three generations

open access: yes, 2019
A recommendation – based on reviews by Stewart Plaistow and one anonymous reviewer – of the article: Tariel, J., Plenet, S., and Luquet, E. (2019). Transgenerational plasticity of inducible defenses: combined effects of grand-parental, parental and ...

Interactions between maternal provisioning and natural selection on seed mass fluctuate across heat waves

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Changing climates are leading to more frequent and severe heat waves, potentially threatening plant populations. Both acclimation to stress and selection for heat‐escape or heat‐resistance phenotypes occur during heat waves. However, plastic responses and selection do not necessarily interact cohesively—even producing trait responses ...
