The Role of Plasticity and Adaptation in the Incipient Speciation of a Fire Salamander Population

The Role of Plasticity and Adaptation in the Incipient Speciation of a Fire Salamander Population

Phenotypic plasticity and local adaptation via genetic change are two major mechanisms of response to dynamic environmental conditions. These mechanisms are not mutually exclusive, since genetic change can establish similar phenotypes to plasticity. This connection between both mechanisms raises the...
