Private QTLs and the genetic architecture of hierarchical size traits: from body size to sex-specific plasticity.

G3 (Bethesda, Md.) - 3 Jun 2026

Abstract excerpt

Sex-specific size plasticity (SSP) is the phenomenon whereby the size of one sex is more environmentally sensitive than the other, and is thought to underlie the developmental regulation and evolution of sexual size dimorphism (SSD). Sex-specific plasticity is a higher-order phenotype that emerges from the effects of the environment and sex on core growth regulatory mechanisms. Genetic variation in SSP...
