Responses of common and rare aliens and natives to nutrient availability and fluctuations (2017, background): “Ideally, the adaptive value of plasticity should be tested explicitly (van Kleunen & Fischer 2005).”
Quantitative estimation of phenotypic plasticity: bridging the gap between the evolutionary concept and its ecological applications (2006, background): “The question of why plasticity is not universally widespread in plants (Van Kleunen & Fischer 2005) remains unsolved and comparative studies that rank species according to their plasticity are essential to this important question (Valladares et al. 2000a; Bradshaw 2006).”
Genotype-by-Environment Interaction and Plasticity: Exploring Genomic Responses of Plants to the Abiotic Environment (2013, background): “As such, neutral or maladaptive plasticity occurs and even adaptive plasticity involves costs and limits that may constrain evolution (Auld et al. 2010, De Witt et al. 1998, DeWitt & Scheiner 2004, van Kleunen & Fischer 2005).”
Re-evaluating the costs and limits of adaptive phenotypic plasticity (2010, background): “Van Kleunen & Fischer (2005) rejected the developmental-range limit by arguing that it must result from maintenance or production costs.”
The effects of phenotypic plasticity and local adaptation on forecasts of species range shifts under climate change. (2014, background): “A measure of plasticity (e.g. the slope of the reaction norm) can then be regressed on a fitness proxy to assess the adaptive value of this response (Van Kleunen & Fischer 2005; Nicotra et al. 2010).”
Adaptive versus non‐adaptive phenotypic plasticity and the potential for contemporary adaptation in new environments (2007, background): “Second, when adaptive plasticity produces a mean phenotype that is closer to the optimum favoured by selection, but incomplete (i.e. still short of the optimal response), the derived population will likely persist, but still be far enough away from the favoured optimum to be subjected to…”
Jack of all trades, master of some? On the role of phenotypic plasticity in plant invasions. (2006, methodology): “…and empirical arsenal of ecology and evolutionary biology, including common garden experiments, selection studies and the comparative phylogenetic method (see Dudley & Schmitt 1996; Schmitt et al. 1999; Sultan 2000; van Kleunen & Fischer 2005; Pigliucci 2005), and is thus a non-trivial task.”
The evolution of phenotypic plasticity in response to anthropogenic disturbance (2010, background): “…the more sedentary nature of plants might increase their relative exposure to overall environmental degradation, which could in turn increase the potential for maladaptive plasticity and thereby promote the evolution of reduced plasticity (Alpert and Simms, 2002; van Kleunen and Fischer, 2005).”
Plant Phenotypic Plasticity in Response to Environmental Factors (2014, background): “This has the potential to explain a variety of evolutionary ecological processes [14, 75].”
Preadapted for invasiveness: do species traits or their plastic response to shading differ between invasive and non‐invasive plant species in their native range? (2011, background): “It is possible that plants had active leaf-blade-elongation responses to compensate for passive reductions in leaf-blade length due to limited resource availability (i.e. plants actively maintained homeostasis in leaf-blade length; van Kleunen & Fischer, 2005).”
What Role Does Heritable Epigenetic Variation Play in Phenotypic Evolution? (2010, background): “…of an organism’s ability to respond to its environment has advanced dramatically during the last few decades, in large part through studies controlling for genotypic variation and manipulating environmental factors (Pigliucci 2001, van Kleunen and Fischer 2005, Val-ladares et al. 2007).”
