Experimental and theoretical support for costs of plasticity and phenotype in a nematode cannibalistic trait

Abstract: Developmental plasticity is the ability of a genotype to express multiple phenotypes under different environmental conditions and has been shown to facilitate the evolution of novel traits. However, while associated costs of both plasticity and phenotype have been theoretically predicted, empirically such costs remain poorly documented and little understood. Here, we use a plasticity model system, hermaphroditic nematode Pristionchus pacificus, to experimentally measure these costs in wild isolates under contr… Show more
