Abstract:While there is long‐standing interest in the role of inter‐ and transgenerational plasticity via the maternal line, it rarely has been studied via the paternal line. Thus, consequences of the paternal environment for parental fitness and for performance of offspring in the environments experienced by either fathers or mothers are not known. We studied the intergenerational plasticity (IGP) of the plant species Paeonia ostii (Paeoniaceae) and tested the hypothesis that exposure of fathers to environmental stres… Show more
