... and there is ambiguity in the term ‘cost of plasticity’. Here, we systematically review the literature to investigate the prevalence of costs associated with phenotypic plasticity in ectothermic animals. We categorized studies into those assessing ‘costs of phenotype’ (trade-offs between different plastic trait values...

... ). Future studies comparing the metabolic rates of colonies and colony members across multiple colony life cycle stages will be helpful to better understand the energetic costs of Wolbachia infection. A trade-off between fecundity and longevity has widely been observed within and between species...

... wing colouration such as melanin. Competing for the same resources often leads to trade-offs in resource allocation. We manipulated protein availability in the larval diet of the wood tiger moth, Arctia plantaginis , to test how early life resource availability influences relevant life history traits...

...Alberto A. Castro; Theodore Garland, Jr; Saad Ahmed; Natalie C. Holt ABSTRACT A trade-off between locomotor speed and endurance occurs in various taxa, and is thought to be underpinned by a muscle-level trade-off. Among four replicate high runner (HR) lines of mice, selectively bred for voluntary...

...Jerry F. Husak; Simon P. Lailvaux ABSTRACT Phenotypic trade-offs are inevitable in nature, but the mechanisms driving them are poorly understood. Movement and oxygen are essential to all animals, and as such, the common ancestor to all living animals passed on mechanisms to acquire oxygen...

... contributed to low nesting rates of bees exposed to constant low temperatures. Females from that group that were able to nest had fewer, larger offspring with high viability, suggesting a trade-off. Interestingly, offspring of bees exposed to fluctuating low temperatures were more likely to enter diapause...

.... Therefore, TH production may become costly when environmental iodine availability is low. This may yield a trade-off for breeding females between allocating the hormones to self or to their eggs, potentially to the extent that it even influences the number of laid eggs. In this study, we investigated...

Nonetheless, basal heat tolerance often correlates negatively with tolerance plasticity (‘trade-off hypothesis’), a constraint that could...

Although survival-related traits often trade off with reproduction, survival-related traits themselves may trade off with each other under energy limitations. Whole-organism performance...
