developmental plasticity

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Life-long exposure to hypoxia affects metabolism and respiratory physiology across life stages in high-altitude deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus)
    Catherine M. Ivy, Graham R. Scott
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2021 224: jeb237024 doi: 10.1242/jeb.237024 Published 7 January 2021

    Summary: Life-long exposure to hypoxia alters hypoxic metabolic depression throughout life with age-specific effects on breathing.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Both maternal and embryonic exposure to mild hypoxia influence embryonic development of the intertidal gastropod Littorina littorea
    James C. S. McCoy, John I. Spicer, Oliver Tills, Simon D. Rundle
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb221895 doi: 10.1242/jeb.221895 Published 26 October 2020

    Summary: Maternal and embryonic exposure to mild hypoxia influence timings of developmental events, whereas aspects of embryo morphology and overall development time were influenced only by embryonic exposure to mild hypoxia.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    nkx3.2 mutant zebrafish accommodate jaw joint loss through a phenocopy of the head shapes of Paleozoic jawless fish
    Tetsuto Miyashita, Pranidhi Baddam, Joanna Smeeton, A. Phil Oel, Natasha Natarajan, Brogan Gordon, A. Richard Palmer, J. Gage Crump, Daniel Graf, W. Ted Allison
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb216945 doi: 10.1242/jeb.216945 Published 5 August 2020

    Summary: Jaw dysfunctions are generally deleterious, but zebrafish mutants lacking jaw joints survive and dramatically alter their skull shape and feeding, developing superficial resemblance to distantly related jawless vertebrates.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Consequences of rapid development owing to cohort splitting: just how costly is it to hurry?
    Zoltán Rádai, Johanna Kiss, Agnieszka Babczyńska, Gábor Kardos, Ferenc Báthori, Ferenc Samu, Zoltán Barta
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb219659 doi: 10.1242/jeb.219659 Published 20 March 2020

    Summary: We provide a robust empirical contribution to the understanding of individual-level consequences of developmental plasticity leading to cohort splitting, and highlight its importance in shaping key life history traits.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Maternal glucocorticoids promote offspring growth without inducing oxidative stress or shortening telomeres in wild red squirrels
    Ben Dantzer, Freya van Kesteren, Sarah E. Westrick, Stan Boutin, Andrew G. McAdam, Jeffrey E. Lane, Robert Gillespie, Ariana Majer, Mark F. Haussmann, Pat Monaghan
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb212373 doi: 10.1242/jeb.212373 Published 6 January 2020

    Summary: Experimental increases in glucocorticoids in breeding female North American red squirrels affects offspring postnatal growth but not levels of oxidative damage and antioxidants or telomere lengths.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Developmental effects of heatwave conditions on the early life stages of a coral reef fish
    Rachel K. Spinks, Philip L. Munday, Jennifer M. Donelson
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb202713 doi: 10.1242/jeb.202713 Published 23 August 2019

    Summary: Juvenile damselfish exposed in early life to a sufficient duration of heatwave conditions are smaller in size but have better predator-escape performance.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Reproductive fitness of Drosophila is maximised by optimal developmental temperature
    Peter Klepsatel, Thirnahalli Nagaraj Girish, Heinrich Dircksen, Martina Gáliková
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb202184 doi: 10.1242/jeb.202184 Published 20 May 2019

    Summary: Developmental acclimation does not necessarily enhance reproductive fitness in Drosophila melanogaster; instead, the highest fitness is achieved by development at an optimal temperature.

  • COMMENTARY
    Developmental phenotypic plasticity helps bridge stochastic weather events associated with climate change
    Warren Burggren
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb161984 doi: 10.1242/jeb.161984 Published 10 May 2018

    Summary: Unpredictable environmental phenomena associated with climate change can be challenging to developing organisms, but developmental phenotypic plasticity may be key to their survival.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Metabolome dynamics of diapause in the butterfly Pieris napi: distinguishing maintenance, termination and post-diapause phases
    Philipp Lehmann, Peter Pruisscher, Vladimír Koštál, Martin Moos, Petr Šimek, Sören Nylin, Rasmus Agren, Leif Väremo, Christer Wiklund, Christopher W. Wheat, Karl Gotthard
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb169508 doi: 10.1242/jeb.169508 Published 25 January 2018

    Highlighted Article: Diapause in a temperate butterfly is associated with a highly dynamic metabolome, and its termination, once initiated by cold, is associated with temperature-independent changes in profiles of several key metabolites.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Hotter nests produce hatchling lizards with lower thermal tolerance
    Buddhi Dayananda, Brad R. Murray, Jonathan K. Webb
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 2159-2165; doi: 10.1242/jeb.152272

    Highlighted Article: Gecko embryos that experience high temperatures during incubation produce hatchlings with lower thermal tolerance, suggesting that lizards may have limited capacity to adapt to higher nest temperatures.
