Abstract: Abstract Understanding the roles of phenotypic plasticity in adaptive evolution has gained recognition for decades. Studies involving multiple taxa have shown that gene expression plasticity serves as “long-term memory” to facilitate re-adaptations to ancestral environments.… read more here.

Abstract: From bacteria to vertebrates, organisms “remember” their ancestral environments in the form of phenotypic plasticity. Phenotypic plasticity refers to environment-induced phenotypic changes without mutation and is present in all organisms. The role of phenotypic plasticity… read more here.
