• Variation in developmental mode and its effects on divergence and maintenance of populations 

  Kesäniemi, Jenni (University of Jyväskylä, 2012)

• Early-life environmental effects on birds : epigenetics and microbiome as mechanisms underlying long-lasting phenotypic changes 

  Ruuskanen, Suvi (The Company of Biologists, 2024)

  Although the long-lasting effects of variation in early-life environment have been well documented across organisms, the underlying causal mechanisms are only recently starting to be unraveled. Yet understanding the ...

• Seasonal genetic variation associated with population dynamics of a poecilogonous polychaete worm 

  Thonig, Anne; Banta, Gary Thomas; Hansen, Benni Winding; Knott, Emily (John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2017)

  Poecilogonous species show variation in developmental mode, with larvae that differ both morphologically and ecologically. The spionid polychaete Pygospio elegans shows variation in developmental mode not only between ...

• Maternally‐transferred thyroid hormones and life‐history variation in birds 

  Hsu, Bin‐Yan; Pakanen, Veli‐Matti; Boner, Winnie; Doligez, Blandine; Eeva, Tapio; Groothuis, Ton G. G.; Korpimäki, Erkki; Laaksonen, Toni; Lelono, Asmoro; Monaghan, Pat; Sarraude, Tom; Thomson, Robert L.; Tolvanen, Jere; Tschirren, Barbara; Vásquez, Rodrigo A.; Ruuskanen, Suvi (Wiley-Blackwell, 2022)

  1. In vertebrates, thyroid hormones (THs) play an important role in the regulation of growth, development, metabolism, photoperiodic responses and migration. Maternally transferred THs are important for normal early-phase ...

• Variation in egg size and offspring phenotype among and within seven Arctic charr morphs 

  Beck, Samantha V.; Räsänen, Katja; Kristjánsson, Bjarni K.; Skúlason, Skúli; Jónsson, Zophonías O.; Tsinganis, Markos; Leblanc, Camille A. (Wiley, 2022)

  Maternal effects have the potential to alter early developmental processes of offspring and contribute to adaptive diversification. Egg size is a major contributor to offspring phenotype, which can influence developmental ...
