Insulin signaling as a mechanism underlying developmental plasticity: the role of FOXO in a nutritional polyphenism.
We investigated whether insulin signaling, known to mediate physiological plasticity in response to changes in nutrition, also facilitates discrete phenotypic responses such as polyphenisms. We test the hypothesis that the gene FOXO--which regulates growth arrest under nutrient stress--mediates a nu...
