Phenotypic plasticity, if adaptive, may allow species to counter the detrimental effects of
extreme conditions, but the infrequent occurrence of extreme environments and/or their …

The interaction between predator and prey is an evolutionary arms race, for which early
detection by either party is often the key to success. In aquatic ecosystems, olfaction is an …

The Flexible Phenotype attempts a true synthesis of physiology, behaviour, and ecology by
developing an empirical argument that describes the intimate connections between …

Prey seldom rely on a single type of antipredator defence, often using multiple defences to
avoid predation. In many cases, selection in different contexts may favour the evolution of …

An organism's phenotype can be influenced by maternal cues and directly perceived
environmental cues, as well as by its genotype at polymorphic loci, which can be interpreted …

Phenotypic plasticity refers to the capacity of the same organisms to exhibit different
characteristics under varied environmental conditions. A plastic developmental program …

In recent years, the number of publications on nano-and microplastic particles (NMPs)
effects on freshwater organisms has increased rapidly. Freshwater crustaceans of the genus …

Population persistence in a new and stressful environment can be influenced by the plastic
phenotypic responses of individuals to this environment, and by the genetic evolution of …

Determining how plasticity of developmental traits responds to environmental conditions is a
challenge that must combine evolutionary sciences, ecology, and developmental biology …

Phenotypically plastic characters may respond to multiple variables in their environment, but
the evolutionary consequences of this phenomenon have rarely been addressed …
