Feeding plasticity in the nematode Pristionchus pacificus is influenced by sex and social context and is linked to developmental speed.

Evolution & development - 1 May 2013

Serobyan Vahan, Ragsdale Erik J, Müller Manuela R, Sommer Ralf J

Abstract excerpt

The increasing evidence for a role of developmental plasticity in evolution offers exciting prospects for testing interactions between ecological and developmental genetic processes. Recent advances with the model organism Pristionchus pacificus have provided inroads to a mechanistic understanding of a developmental plasticity. The developmental plasticity of P. pacificus comprises two discontinuous adult...
