Adaptation to environmental stress at different timescales

TN Kristensen, T Ketola… - Annals of the new York …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Environments are changing rapidly, and to cope with these changes, organisms have to
adapt. Adaptation can take many shapes and occur at different speeds, depending on the …

Using phenotypic plasticity to understand the structure and evolution of the genotype–phenotype map

LM Chevin, C Leung, A Le Rouzic, T Uller - Genetica, 2022 - Springer
Deciphering the genotype–phenotype map necessitates relating variation at the genetic
level to variation at the phenotypic level. This endeavour is inherently limited by the …

Plastic responses to novel environments are biased towards phenotype dimensions with high additive genetic variation

DWA Noble, R Radersma… - Proceedings of the …, 2019 - National Acad Sciences
Environmentally induced phenotypes have been proposed to initiate and bias adaptive
evolutionary change toward particular directions. The potential for this to happen depends in …

Plasticity leaves a phenotypic signature during local adaptation

R Radersma, DWA Noble, T Uller - Evolution Letters, 2020 - academic.oup.com
Phenotypic responses to a novel or extreme environment are initially plastic, only later to be
followed by genetic change. Whether or not environmentally induced phenotypes are …

Evolution of thermal tolerance and phenotypic plasticity under rapid and slow temperature fluctuations

CE Schaum, A Buckling, N Smirnoff… - Proceedings of the …, 2022 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Global warming is associated with an increase in sea surface temperature and its variability.
The consequences of evolving in variable, fluctuating environments are explored by a large …

Why study plasticity in multiple traits? New hypotheses for how phenotypically plastic traits interact during development and selection

ME Nielsen, DR Papaj - Evolution, 2022 - academic.oup.com
Organisms can often respond adaptively to a change in their environment through
phenotypic plasticity in multiple traits, a phenomenon termed as multivariate plasticity. These …

Adaptive phenotypic plasticity is under stabilizing selection in Daphnia

D Becker, K Barnard-Kubow, R Porter… - Nature Ecology & …, 2022 - nature.com
The adaptive nature of phenotypic plasticity is widely documented. However, little is known
about the evolutionary forces that shape genetic variation of plasticity within populations …

Predation drives local adaptation of phenotypic plasticity

J Reger, MI Lind, MR Robinson… - Nature ecology & …, 2018 - nature.com
Phenotypic plasticity is the ability of an individual genotype to alter aspects of its phenotype
depending on the current environment. It is central to the persistence, resistance and …

Natural selection mediated by seasonal time constraints increases the alignment between evolvability and developmental plasticity

F Johansson, PC Watts, S Sniegula, D Berger - Evolution, 2021 - academic.oup.com
Phenotypic plasticity can either hinder or promote adaptation to novel environments. Recent
studies that have quantified alignments between plasticity, genetic variation, and divergence …

Toxic Microcystis aeruginosa alters the resource allocation in Daphnia mitsukuri responding to fish predation cues

N Lu, Y Sun, J Wei, L Gu, L Zhang, Z Yang… - Environmental …, 2021 - Elsevier
Many prey organisms adaptively respond to predation risk by inducible defenses with
underlying tradeoffs in resource allocation. Cyanobacterial blooms expose zooplankton to …
