Phenotypic plasticity, the expression of multiple phenotypes from one genome, is a
widespread adaptation to short-term environmental fluctuations, but whether it facilitates …

I summarize marine studies on plastic versus adaptive responses to global change. Due to
the lack of time series, this review focuses largely on the potential for adaptive evolution in …

Life-history traits or “fitness components”—such as age and size at maturity, fecundity and
fertility, age-specific rates of survival, and life span—are the major phenotypic determinants …

All fungi invading plant foliage have an asymptomatic period in their life cycle that varies
from an imperceptibly short period (eg pathogens) to a lifetime (eg Neotyphodium …

Conditions fish encounter during embryogenesis and early life history can leave lasting
effects not only on morphology, but also on growth rate, life‐history and behavioural traits …

Phenotypic plasticity plays a key role in modulating how environmental variation influences
population dynamics, but we have only rudimentary understanding of how plasticity interacts …

Phenotypic plasticity is ubiquitous and generally regarded as a key mechanism for enabling
organisms to survive in the face of environmental change. Because no organism is infinitely …

One of the outstanding challenges for evolutionary biologists is to understand how
developmental plasticity can influence the evolutionary process. Developmental plasticity …

Developmental plasticity refers to the property by which the same genotype produces
distinct phenotypes depending on the environmental conditions under which development …

As climate change challenges organismal fitness by creating a phenotype–environment
mismatch, phenotypic plasticity generated by epigenetic mechanisms (eg, DNA methylation) …
