Phenotypic plasticity refers to some of the changes in an organism's behavior, morphology and physiology in response to a unique environment. [1] [2] Fundamental to the way in which organisms cope with environmental variation, phenotypic plasticity encompasses all types of environmentally induced changes (e.g. morphological, physiological, behavioural, phenological) that may or may not be ...
[1] [4] The central phrenological notion that measuring the contour of the skull can predict personality traits is discredited by empirical research. [5] Developed by German physician Franz Joseph Gall in 1796, [6] the discipline was influential in the 19th century, especially from about 1810 until 1840.

Climate change is already impacting our seasons in New York and phenology, bolstered by citizen science, is documenting those impacts. Climate change is affecting seasonal indicators. How ...
The BBCH-scale is used to identify the phenological development stages of plants. [1] BBCH-scales have been developed for a range of crop species where similar growth stages of each plant are given the same code.
In one example, a plant’s flowering phenology and its seed-dispersing ant mutualist’s phenology are both triggered by temperature cues. [27] Because the plant’s phenology is more prone to change under a new climate regime than the ant’s, the plant is decoupled from the selective pressure for flowering synchrony that the ant mutualism ...
Evolutionary developmental biology (evo-devo) is the study of developmental programs and patterns from an evolutionary perspective. [1] It seeks to understand the various influences shaping the form and nature of life on the planet. Evo-devo arose as a separate branch of science rather recently. An early sign of this occurred in 1999. [2]
