Development Strategies and Biodiversity [E-Book] : Darwinian Fitness and Evolution in the Anthropocene / edited by David Costantini, Valeria Marasco.
Development is a complex and highly dynamic process involving the cross talk among genes, maternal effects and environmental circumstances. Widespread evidence from plant to animal species show that variation in developmental conditions can modulate life history trajectories and influence key traits...
