... 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...

...Samantha S. Fontaine; Kevin D. Kohl ABSTRACT Climate change and increasing global temperatures are a leading threat to ectothermic animals worldwide. Ectotherm persistence under climate change will depend on a combination of host and environmental factors; recently it has become clear that host...

...C. Hemmer-Brepson; L. Replumaz; C. Romestaing; Y. Voituron; M. Daufresne Temperature is well known to affect many biological and ecological traits, especially in ectotherms. From a physiological point of view, temperature is also positively correlated to metabolism and is often associated...

... regulation by catecholamines has been thoroughly investigated in mammals, but little information is available for ectotherms. Therefore, the goals of this study were, first, to characterize the effects of the catecholamines norepinephrine(NE) and epinephrine (Epi) on the lipolytic rate of intact rainbow...
