Abstract: Abstract Species diversity seems to favour the environmental heterogeneity and habitat complexity, which in turn favour the selection of greater levels of phenotypic plasticity of plant species. While recent evidence suggested that local species diversity… read more here.

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.
