Rapid Evolution of Phenotypic Plasticity and Shifting Thresholds of Genetic Assimilation in the Nematode Caenorhabditis remanei
KL Sikkink, RM Reynolds, CM Ituarte… - G3: Genes …, 2014 - academic.oup.com
Many organisms can acclimate to new environments through phenotypic plasticity, a complex
trait that can be heritable, subject to selection, and evolve. However, the rate and genetic …
