Abstract: There is increasing evidence that phenotypic plasticity can promote population divergence by facilitating phenotypic diversification and, eventually, genetic divergence. When a ‘plastic’ population colonizes a new habitat, it has the possibility to occupy multiple niches… read more here.

DOI: 10.1534/genetics.119.301907
Abstract: To better understand cryptic genetic variation, Lee et al. comprehensively map the genetic basis of a trait that is typically suppressed in a yeast cross. By determining how three different genetic perturbations give rise... Cryptic… read more here.
