Organisms have diverse biological clocks synchronised with environmental cycles depending on their habitats. Anticipation of tidal changes has driven the evolution of circatidal rhythms in some marine species. In the freshwater snail, Se...
Non-genetic variation is the phenotypic variation induced by the differential expression of a genotype in response to varying environmental cues and is broadly categorized into two types: phenotypic plasticity and developmental noise. T...

Abstract
Seasonal environmental change is one of the most rapid and striking environmental variables. Although relatively rapid adaptation to environmental changes over several years or several decades has been described in many taxa, rapid respo...
Organisms have endogenous timekeeping system(s) to coordinate their biological processes with environmental cycles, allowing adaptation to external rhythmic changes in their environment. The change in endogenous rhythms could contribute to range e...
Cities experience changes in abiotic factors, such as warming, increases in noise and light. These changes can lead to phenotypic changes. Several studies have revealed that altered environments change phenotypes in plants and animals in cities. H...
