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).”
Behavioural responses to human‐induced environmental change (2011, background): “…behavioural response can be due to limits of plasticity, which prevent individuals from behaving optimally (Price et al., 2003), or to costs of plasticity that cause individuals with highly plastic behaviour to have a lower fitness than individuals with less plastic behaviour (Auld et al., 2010).”
Effects of ocean acidification and elevated temperature on shell plasticity and its energetic basis in an intertidal gastropod (2013, background): “…Ecol Prog Ser 472: 155–168, 2013 explicitly examine the extent to which species can exhibit plastic responses to predicted levels of environmental change (e.g. see Irie 2006, Terblanche et al. 2006) as well as the potential costs of such plasticity (DeWitt et al. 1998, Auld et al. 2010).”
Terrestrial insects and climate change: adaptive responses in key traits (2019, background): “This hypothesis stems from theoretical models that predict that plasticity should evolve when populations experience spatial and/or temporal environmental heterogeneity (Via & Lande, 1985; Gabriel & Lynch, 1992; Gilchrist, 1995), the environmental cues influencing plasticity are strong and predictab”
The effects of phenotypic plasticity and local adaptation on forecasts of species range shifts under climate change. (2014, background): “Moreover, the mean value and the plasticity of a trait may interact (Auld et al. 2010).”
