Developmental Plasticity and Robustness of a Nematode Mouth-Form Polyphenism
In the last decade, case studies in plants and animals provided increasing insight into the molecular mechanisms of developmental plasticity. When complemented with evolutionary and ecological analyses, these studies suggest that plasticity represents a mechanism facilitating adaptive change, increa...
