Plant Phenotypic Plasticity: From Molecular Mechanisms to Breeding and Climate Change Adaptation.

Abstract excerpt

Phenotypic plasticity (PP) is a fundamental property of plants, enabling a single genotype to produce different phenotypes in response to environmental variation. This ability is crucial for survival and reproduction in heterogeneous habitats, allowing plants to optimize their physiology, development, and growth under changing conditions. Widespread natural genetic variation for plasticity enables selection to...
