Phenotypic plasticity promotes persistence following severe events: physiological and morphological responses of seagrass to flooding (2014, background): “Species that lack sufficient plasticity to maintain growth and reproduction in degraded and variable environments might be at risk of range reductions or localized extinctions (Sultan 2000).”
PHENOTYPIC PLASTICITY AND INTERACTIONS AMONG PLANTS (2003, background): “…effects of the treatments used to create plasticity (Bolker et al. 2003), and (2) it is difficult to assess the consequences of plasticity in a natural setting because of the very S pec ial Featu r e nature of plasticity: plants continue to change after they have been manipulated (Sultan 2000).”
Phenotypic plasticity blurs ecotypic divergence in the response of Quercus coccifera and Pinus halepensis to water stress (2008, background): “The ability of a plant to acclimate to diVerent environments is, in general, genetically determined (Donohue et al. 2005; Lin and Hsu 2004; Miner et al. 2005; Ronsheim and Bever 2000; Schlichting and Pigliucci 1998; Sultan 2000).”
Promising directions in plant phenotypic plasticity (2004, background): “(2) To understand these effects it is important to examine specific, functionally important aspects of seedling development such as root and shoot extension rates, rather than to simply measure seed mass as in many earlier studies ( Sultan 2000, and references therein).”
Light Heterogeneity and Plants: from Ecophysiology to Species Coexistence and Biodiversity (2003, background): “Functional and adaptive meaning of phenotypic plasticity in re sponse to light (Dudley and Schmitt 1996; Sultan 2000) Precise knowledge on how light, specially its spatial and temporal heterogeneity, influence coexistence and community composition (Nicotra et aI.”
Plastic defence expression in plants (2010, background): “Phenotypic plasticity is the ability of an organism to express different phenotypes in response to changing environmental conditions (Sultan 2000; Agrawal 2001; Van Buskirk and Steiner 2009).”
Aging in Perennials (2007, background): “Only recently has plasticity been widely recognized as a significant mode of phenotypic diversity and hence as an important aspect of how organisms develop, function and evolve in their environments (Sultan, 2000).”
Multispecies comparison reveals that invasive and native plants differ in their traits but not in their plasticity (2011, background): “Genotype-level approaches provide a precise study of plasticity, its mecha- nisms and its evolutionary potential (Sultan 2000).”
Plant Phenotypic Plasticity in Response to Environmental Factors (2014, background): “The timing of plant development can itself be plastic [23] and many phenotypic responses to environmental stress factors may be the consequence of growth reduction due to resource limitations [24, 25].”
