Grandparental effects in marine sticklebacks: transgenerational plasticity across multiple generations.
Nongenetic inheritance mechanisms such as transgenerational plasticity (TGP) can buffer populations against rapid environmental change such as ocean warming. Yet, little is known about how long these effects persist and whether they are cumulative over generations. Here, we tested for adaptive TGP in response to simulated ocean warming across parental and grandparental generations of marine sti...
متن کاملTransgenerational plasticity of reproduction depends on rate of warming across generations
Predicting the impacts of climate change to biological systems requires an understanding of the ability for species to acclimate to the projected environmental change through phenotypic plasticity. Determining the effects of higher temperatures on individual performance is made more complex by the potential for environmental conditions experienced in previous and current generations to independ...
متن کاملThree Generations
as my father and grandfather were also members of our great profession I thought I would try and look at life as it was since 1846 when my grandfather obtained his qualificationi of L.R.C.S. in Edinibuirgh, inci(denltally he was Presi(lent of this Society in 187576. During that early period what great names were brought before the students. Moses, the first great doctor in Egypt, laid down laws...
متن کاملTransgenerational plasticity is adaptive in the wild.
Plants exhibit adaptive responses to light, but it is not known whether parental plants transmit environmental cues that elicit adaptive responses in offspring. We show that offspring life history (annual versus biennial) is influenced by the maternal light environment (understory versus light gap). This transgenerational plasticity is adaptive when offspring are grown in their maternal light e...
متن کاملTransgenerational phenotypic plasticity under future atmospheric conditions
Edward B. Mondor,* Michelle N. Tremblay and Richard L. Lindroth Department of Entomology, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI 53706, USA *Correspondence: E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Organisms often exhibit transgenerational phenotypic changes in response to an increased risk of parasitism or predation. Shifts in global atmospheric composition could modify these phenotypic effec...
