Statistical decomposition of passive and active phenotypic plasticity in traits under homeostatic regulation.

Abstract excerpt

Traits subject to homeostatic regulation exhibit both active and passive phenotypic plasticity, where trait dynamics are shaped by passive effects of the environment and active physiological regulation. We present a model that decomposes the temporal dynamics of such traits into parameters that describe the passive effect of the environment, the rate at which active regulation is adjusted (i.e., rate of...
