Mechanisms underlying phenotypic plasticity in response to environmental change.

Abstract excerpt

Understanding how human activity impacts natural systems is crucial for maintaining ecosystem health and the services these provide for societies. Phenotypic plasticity - the regulated expression of different phenotypes by a single genotype - is the most effective response to increase resistance or resilience of phenotypes to rapidly changing environments. Here, we review the mechanisms that underlie phenotypic...
