The capacity of fishes to cope with environmental variation is considered to be a main
determinant of their fitness and is partly determined by their stress physiology. By 2100 …

Marine organisms' persistence hinges on the capacity for acclimatization and adaptation to
the myriad of interacting environmental stressors associated with global climate change. In …

Marine macrophytes are the foundation of algal forests and seagrass meadows–some of the
most productive and diverse coastal marine ecosystems on the planet. These ecosystems …

Fish body growth is a trait of major importance for individual survival and reproduction. It has
implications in population, ecology, and evolution. Somatic growth is controlled by the …

Epigenetics represents a widely accepted set of mechanisms by which organisms respond
to the environment by regulating phenotypic plasticity and life history transitions …

Major progress has been made with genomic and genetic studies in aquaculture in the last
decade. However, research on epigenetic regulation of aquaculture traits is still at an early …

Temperature during embryonic development affects ecological traits and influences the
ability to rapidly adapt to the prevailing conditions in changing environments. Here, we …

Determining the resilience of a species or population to climate change stressors is an
important but difficult task because resilience can be affected both by genetically based …

The marine environment is predicted to become warmer and more hypoxic, and these
conditions may become a challenge for marine fish species. Phenotypically plastic …

The integration of genomic and environmental influences into methylation patterns to bring
about a phenotype is of central interest in developmental epigenetics, but many details are …
