Rethinking phenotypic plasticity and its consequences for individuals, populations and species.

Heredity - 1 Oct 2015

Forsman A

Abstract excerpt

Much research has been devoted to identify the conditions under which selection favours flexible individuals or genotypes that are able to modify their growth, development and behaviour in response to environmental cues, to unravel the mechanisms of plasticity and to explore its influence on patterns of diversity among individuals, populations and species. The consequences of developmental plasticity and...
