The consequences of phenotypic plasticity in cyclically varying environments: a genetic algorithm study.

Journal of theoretical biology - 21 Jan 1996

Behera N, Nanjundiah V

Abstract excerpt

By "phenotypic plasticity" we refer to the capacity of a genotype to exhibit different phenotypes, whether in the same or in different environments. We have previously demonstrated that phenotypic plasticity can improve the degree of adaptation achieved via natural selection (Behera & Nanjundiah, 1995). That result was obtained from a genetic algorithm model of haploid genotypes (idealized as one-dimensional...
