- Title
Evidence of light-induced phenotypic plasticity in zoanthids: editorial comment on the feature article by Wei et al.
- Authors
Hill, Ross
- Abstract
The article discusses the evidence of light-induced phenotypic plasticity in zoanthids. It notes that PP refers to the morphological variation of a single genotype across different environments with several adaptive advantages including the capacity to adjust to variable environments across multiple habitats as environments experience change. It states that the ability of phenotypic plasticity to adjust to the environment has been documented in a range of benthic marine organisms like corals.
