Stress-induced variation in evolution: from behavioural plasticity to genetic assimilation

Abstract
Extreme environments are closely associated with phenotypic evolution, yet the mechanisms behind this relationship are poorly understood. Several themes and approaches in recent studies significantly further our understanding of the importance that stress-induced variation plays in evolution. First, stressful environments modify (and often reduce) the integration of neuroendocrinological, morphological and behavioural regulatory systems.Second, such reduced integration and subsequent accommodation of stress-induced variation by developmental systems enables organismal ‘memory’ of a stressful event as well as phenotypic and genetic assimilation of the response to a stressor.Third, in complex functional systems, a stress-induced increase in phenotypic and genetic variance is often directional, channelled by existing ontogenetic pathways. This accounts for similarity among individuals in stress-induced changes and thus significantly facilitates the rate of adaptive evolution. Finally, stress-induced effects and stress-resistance strategies often persist for several generations through maternal, ecological and cultural inheritance. These transgenerational effects, along with both the complexity of developmental systems and stressor recurrence, might facilitate genetic assimilation of stress-induced effects. Accumulation of phenotypically neutral genetic variance by developmental systems and phenotypic accommodation of stress-induced effects, together with the inheritance of stress-induced modifications, ensure the evolutionary persistence of stress—response strategies and provide a link between individual adaptability and evolutionary adaptation. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Shadow71, this is ridiculous. How much of this data dump is actually relevant to this discussion. Most of this stuff is clearly not epigenetics related. We're not doing discovery here.

This is a swipe from Badyaev.
So are the two following paragraphs.You need to cite Badyaev properly.
A quote goes inside a quote box.

Shadow is just showing the consistency of the fundie/creos we see here.First they try the old tick
"If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit"Then try the Gish Gallop, throw out different subjects so that you can later claim they they were not all refuted.Then finish with the old
"Throw everything up against the wall and see what sticks." If anything sticks, claim victory and switch the subject again.Shadow is truly one of the more dishonest creos we have seen in a while.
This is shown by his continuing to equate non-random with directed. He has been shown numerous times that they are not the same thing, but still searches for any paper that uses the term non-random and claims it proves directed evolution.Shadow has become nothing more than a troll. We all now how to deal with trolls.

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

do you find all this to be bs?This is what Shapiro et. al are now saying.
Notice This is in 1979.Notice The theory is changing.After purusing her cv, do you still think she is a nut bag? If so mabybe you should show us your papers in this area.

Please see my Message 457.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is this all bs.?

This is an abstract.
Have you read the paper?If so, please cite the relevant passages that support your contention of directed evolution. Rupert Sheldrake has a long CV too.
And?
She is looney tunes. Looney. Tunes.

And yes. This is CLASSIC new age bullshit.

You don't want to shell out 40 bucks.
That's it, isn't it?You're cheap.

It'd be a little more convincing that you were actually reading papers and comming to conclusions, as opposed to simply copying and pasting whole pages that include key words but that you've never actually read, if you didn't include the price of the paper in the quoted material!

This is the information I have been trying to obtain since I began on this board.
Science does not know the "CAUSATIVE FACTORS" of what is labeled Natural Selection. It only knows the outcome correct?

Sort of, but not really. It depends on what you mean by causitice factors, and the scare quotes and scare caps make me think that you think its something different than I do. So to better understand that:What is the "CAUSATIVE FACTORS" of my desk having length?Anyways, Natural Selection is the consequence of imperfect replication in a competitive environment. If you have both those things then you have to have NS. Those are the causative factors.Its not some "thing" that had a specific cause.
