Developmental stressors are increasingly recognised for their pervasive influence on the
ecology and evolution of animals. In particular, many studies have focused on how …

Following a request from EFSA, the Panel on Plant Protection Products and their Residues
developed an opinion on the science to support the potential development of a risk …

Body size at metamorphosis is a key trait in species (such as many anurans) with biphasic
life-histories. Experimental studies have shown that metamorph size is highly plastic …

Many amphibian species exploit temporary or even ephemeral aquatic habitats for
reproduction by maximising larval growth under benign conditions but accelerating …

In organisms with complex life cycles, environmentally induced plasticity across sequential
stages can have important consequences on morphology and life history traits such as …

Abstract Development consists of growth and differentiation, which can be partially
decoupled and can be affected by environmental factors to different extents. In amphibians …

If an organism's juvenile and adult life stages inhabit different environments, certain traits
may need to be independently adapted to each environment. In many organisms, a move to …

Environmental challenges early in development can result in complex phenotypic trade-offs
and long-term effects on individual physiology, performance and behavior, with implications …

A comparative analysis of the adaptive developmental plasticity hypothesis in six Mediterranean
anuran species along a pond perm Page 1 A comparative analysis of the adaptive …

Rapid human‐induced transformation of habitats is presenting organisms with challenging
novel environmental conditions. Nowadays, extensive areas of the world are covered by …
