A comparative analysis of the adaptive developmental plasticity hypothesis in six Mediterranean anuran species along a pond permanency gradient (2006, background): “The role of phenotypic plasticity in adapting to natural variable environments has been the focus of much research (Schlichting and Pigliucci, 1998; DeWitt and Scheiner, 2004).”
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).”
Early life events and their consequences for later disease: A life history and evolutionary perspective (2007, background): “The existence of genes for plasticity is a subject of debate (DeWitt and Scheiner, 2004), whereas candidate canalization genes acting at the whole-organism level have been identified, for example HSP90 in Drosophila (Queitsch et al., 2002).”
Adaptive versus non‐adaptive phenotypic plasticity and the potential for contemporary adaptation in new environments (2007, unknown): “We end with suggestions on how future empirical studies can be designed to better test the importance of different kinds of plasticity to adaptive evolution.”
Measuring individual differences in reaction norms in field and experimental studies: a power analysis of random regression models (2011, background): “Phenotypic plasticity is often conceptualized and measured in terms of ‘reaction norms’: functions that relate individual phenotypes to an environmental variable (De Jong 1990; Schlichting & Pigliucci 1998; Pigliucci 2001; DeWitt & Scheiner 2004).”
Comparative genetic responses to climate in the varieties of Pinus ponderosa and Pseudotsuga menziesii: Reforestation (2014, unknown): “(see DeWitt and Scheiner, 2004).”
