Experimental Evolution of Phenotypic Plasticity for Stress Resistance in the Nematode Caenorhabditis remanei
Many organisms can acclimate to new environments through phenotypic plasticity, a complex trait that can be heritable, be subject to selection, and evolve. However, the rate and genetic basis of plasticity evolution remain largely unknown. Experimentally evolved populations of the nematode Caenorhab...
