Phenotypic Plasticity in Animals Exposed to Osmotic Stress - Is it Always Adaptive?

BioEssays : news and reviews in molecular, cellular and developmental biology - 1 Nov 2018

Hildebrandt Jan-Peter, Wiesenthal Amanda A, Müller Christian

Abstract excerpt

Hyperplasia and hypertrophy are elements of phenotypic plasticity adjusting organ size and function. Because they are costly, we assume that they are beneficial. In this review, the authors discuss examples of tissue and organ systems that respond with plastic changes to osmotic stress to raise awareness that we do not always have sufficient experimental evidence to conclude that such processes provide fitness...
