• Big Questions for Social Media Big Data: Representativeness, Validity and Other Methodological Pitfalls (2014, background): “However, the very characteristics that make them useful for studying certain biological mechanisms come at the expense of illuminating others (Gilbert, 2001, Jenner and Wills, 2007).”
• Promising directions in plant phenotypic plasticity (2004, background): “Documenting this variation and its underlying transduction mechanisms has become a major focus of developmental biology, termed ‘ecological development’ ( Gilbert 2001; Gilbert & Bolker 2003; Sultan 2003a).”
• Contributions of larval biology to crustacean research: a review (2006, background): “This represents the subject of a line of research referred to as “Ecological Developmental Biology” or briefly “EcoDevo” (Gilbert, 2001).”
• The evolution of transcriptional regulation in eukaryotes. (2003, background): “Such changes may form the basis of polyphenism and phenotypic plasticity (Schlichting and Pigliucci 1998; Gilbert 2001).”
• A Symbiotic View of Life: We Have Never Been Individuals (2012, background): “Thus, the symbionts are integrated into the normal networks of animal development, interacting with the eukaryotic cells of their “host” (Gilbert 2001, 2003; McFallNgai 2002).”
• The effects of environmental variation on a mechanism that controls insect body size (2004, background): “Hormonal mediation of phenotypic plasticity is well known and has received much recent attention (Nijhout, 1994, 1999; Zera and Zhang, 1995; Zera et al., 1996; Roff and Fairbairn, 1999; Stern and Emlen, 1999; Zera and Huang, 1999; Emlen and Nijhout, 2000; Gilbert, 2001; Pigliucci, 2001; Zera and Har”
• Discussion: Three Ways to Misunderstand Developmental Systems Theory (2005, background): “For example, although Gilbert states that development is explained by ‘neither God…nor DST, but developmental genetics’ (2003, 349), he has argued at length in other contexts that EDB should embrace the study of the ecological context of development and its causal influence on gene expression ( Gilb”
