Adaptive versus non‐adaptive phenotypic plasticity and the potential for contemporary adaptation in new environments (2007, background): “…Pigliucci 2001; West-Eberhard 2003; DeWitt & Scheiner 2004) and review articles (e.g. Thompson 1991; Sultan 1995; DeWitt, Sih & Wilson 1998; Robinson & Dukas 1999; Pigliucci & Murren 2003; Price et al. 2003; Schlichting 2004; Badyaev 2005; de Jong 2005; Grether 2005; van Kleunen & Fischer 2005).”
Phenotypic plasticity and evolution by genetic assimilation (2006, methodology): “…of GA (see Rollo, 1994; Pigliucci and Murren, 2003; West-Eberhard, 2003; Tardieu, 1999; Chapman et al., 2000; Cooley et al., 2001; Sword, 2002; Price et al., 2003; Heil et al., 2004; Mery and Kawecki, 2004; Palmer, 2004; Keogh et al., 2005), so it seems that there is plenty of reasonable…”
Influence of Plasticity and Learning on Evolution under Directional Selection (2007, methodology): “The model is thus formally similar to that of Rice (1998), but we treat parameters a as given and concentrate on the evolution of x.”
Behavioural syndromes in brook charr, Salvelinus fontinalis: prey-search in the field corresponds with space use in novel laboratory situations (2007, background): “Often, initial selection of prey or habitats is attributed to chance (Hutchings 1996; Price et al. 2003; Stamps 2003), or simply not considered, despite increasing recognition that early social and learning processes can inﬂuence later habitat preferences and life history trajectories (Metcalfe et…”
Plant Phenotypic Plasticity in Response to Environmental Factors (2014, background): “In particular, the environment can induce changes in the individual’s behavior at a morphological and/or physiological level [16] and such changes may be crucial to survival in heterogeneous and variable conditions [17–20].”
Developmental Plasticity, Genetic Differentiation, and Hypoxia-induced Trade-offs in an African Cichlid Fish (2008, background): “Genetic assimilation can thus consist of canalization if the variation of characters becomes reduced, or a shift in the norm of reaction, as occurs when the mean trait values change without a change in the level of plasticity [12, 16, 22].”
Altered genotypic and phenotypic frequencies of aphid populations under enriched CO2 and O3 atmospheres (2005, background): “Furthermore, phenotypic plasticity is believed, in some instances, to facilitate genetic adaptation of organisms to novel environments (Sakai et al., 2001; Price et al., 2003; Yeh & Price, 2004).”
Phenotypic changes in spring arrival: evolution, phenotypic plasticity, effects of weather and condition (2007, background): “The important role of phenotypic plasticity for the adaptation to new environmental conditions is increasingly being acknowledged (Thompson 1991, Price et al. 2003, Ghalambor et al. 2007, Gienapp et al. 2008, 15 Clim Res 35: 5–23, 2007 Hendry et al. 2008).”
Adaptation, Genetic Drift, Pleiotropy, and History in the Evolution of Bee Foraging Behavior (2006, background): “We often tacitly assume that behavioral traits (including learning ability) are sitting on narrow adaptive peaks (Price et al., 2003) so that deviations from the most common wild type will be strongly penalized in terms of losses in fitness.”
An overview of the evolutionary causes and consequences of behavioural plasticity (2013, background): “Thus, more and more biologists have turned to studying developmental responses, in particular, adaptive phenotypic plasticity, to understand how organisms will respond to rapidly changing environments (Price et al. 2003; Ghalambor et al. 2007; Lande 2009).”
The extended evolutionary synthesis: its structure, assumptions and predictions (2015, background): “For example, plasticity facilitates colonization of novel environments [40,41], affects population connectivity and gene flow [42], contributes to temporal and spatial variation in selection [43–45] and may increase the chance of adaptive peak shifts, radiations and speciation events [27,46–48].”
Habitat structure, feeding mode and morphological reversibility: factors influencing phenotypic plasticity in perch (2005, background): “Furthermore, phenotypic plasticity is likely to play an important role as a diversifying factor in evolution (West-Eberhard, 1989; Agrawal, 2001), and recent theoretical work suggests that moderate levels of adaptive plasticity may facilitate genetic evolution (Price et al., 2003).”
