Resumen
Understanding the ecological and evolutionary consequences of phenotypic plasticity, the ability of an individual genotype to produce different phenotypes in response to environmental variability, is crucial to consider in light of the rapid change in global environmental conditions that we are now experiencing (Kingsolver and Buckley, 2017). Whilst the evolutionary potential to respond to these novel environments is still debatable, increasing our knowledge of such a process gives us indispensable information into the mechanisms that will underpin the changes to an organism's distributional range and local extinction probability (Merilä and Hendry, 2014). This Research Topic aimed to bring together a wealth of different eco-physiological disciplines, from evolution to physiology, to better understand the mechanisms that allow organisms both at the individual and at the population level, to maximize fitness and survival in response to changing environments.
