The adaptive value of phenotypic plasticity in two ecotypes of a marine gastropod
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
It is concluded that the partial plastic response shown in Littorina saxatilis has a significant impact on fitness, although this remains small compared to the overall adaptive difference between ecotypes.
