Adaptation to an extraordinary environment by evolution of phenotypic plasticity and genetic assimilation (2009, background): “…canalization comes from meristic or threshold traits that are nearly invariant in natural populations, using major mutations or environmental perturbations to experimentally decanalize the trait (Rendel, 1967, 1968; Scharloo, 1991; Rutherford & Lindquist, 1998; de Visser et al., 2003; Flatt, 2005).”
Mapping As You Go (2004, background): “This approach assumes that the Visser et al., 2003), we seek a MAS strategy that is effective across a wide range of trait architectures anddesirable QTL alleles, once identified, will remain rele- vant during many cycles of selection.”
Stability effects of mutations and protein evolvability. (2009, background): “Fluctuations in temperature, salinity, redox potential, and similar factors, may have led the evolution of higher stability [5,45].”
The Evolution of Genetic Architecture (2006, background): “…through epistatic interactions with an evolving genetic background (Wagner et al. 1997), and is currently the focus of considerable theoretical and empirical interest (de Visser et al. 2003, Dworkin 2005a, Flatt 2005, Gibson & Dworkin 2004, Gibson & Wagner 2000, Rutherford 2000, Wagner 2005).”
Heritability is not Evolvability (2011, background): “We also note that theoretical models tend to predict that genetic and environmental canalization may happen under similar circumstances, and the major driver of genetic canalization may in fact be its link with environmental canalization (Wagner et al. 1997; de Visser et al. 2003).”
Phylogenetic systematics and historical biogeography of the Neotropical electric fish Gymnotus (Teleostei: Gymnotidae) (2005, methodology): “The degree of phylogenetic plasticity (‘evolvability’ sensu de Visser et al., 2003; Rutherford, 2003) was assessed from alternative values of an index of character congruence, the rescaled consistency index (RC) of Farris (1989).”
A mixability theory for the role of sex in evolution (2008, background): “Recently, interest has increased in the evolution of phenotypic robustness to genetic changes [24, 11].”
Robustness: mechanisms and consequences (2009, background): “There are three major reasons that phenotypic robustness to a particular type of natural perturbation might exist [15].”
Epistasis—the essential role of gene interactions in the structure and evolution of genetic systems (2008, background): “and the evolution of the structure of genetic system”
