A systemic approach to the quantification of the phenotypic plasticity of plant physiological traits: the multivariate plasticity index.

Abstract excerpt

The phenotype of an individual emerges from the interaction of its genotype with the environment in which it is located. Phenotypic plasticity (PP) is the ability of a specific genotype to present multiple phenotypes in response to the environment. Past and current methods for quantification of PP present limitations, mainly in what constitutes a systemic analysis of multiple traits. This research proposes an...
