摘要

适应性发育可塑性可以使生物体通过改变发育过程中的反应规范,迅速改变其表型,以响应局部(也许是不可预测的)条件。以往的研究以西方科学家为主,采用西方的研究体系和方法。近年来,中国生态学研究的扩展,在分类学(系统发育学)方面的研究日益广泛。本文简要总结了近二十年来中国爬行动物发育可塑性的研究进展,并对今后的研究方向进行了展望。中国在这一领域有令人兴奋的研究机会,我们呼吁西方和东方科学家加强合作,阐明发育可塑性在生物体对环境变化的进化反应中的作用。由于人类活动增加了这种变化的强度和频率,了解生物系统的反应的需要成为一个日益紧迫的优先事项。

Phenotypic Plasticity in Embryonic Development of Reptiles: Recent Research and Research Opportunities in China
Adaptive developmental plasticity can enable an organism to modify its phenotype rapidly, in response to local (and perhaps, unpredictable) conditions, by altering reaction norms during development. Previous studies on this topic have been dominated by western scientists, employing western study systems and approaches. Recently, the ex- pansion of Chinese ecological research has seen a broadening of studies taxonomically (phylogenetically). Here, we briefly summarize research that has been conducted on developmental plasticity in Chinese reptiles over the past two decades, and suggest productive directions for future studies in this field. There are exciting research opportunities in this field in China, and we call for increased collaboration between western and eastern scientists to elucidate the role of developmental plasticity in evolutionary responses of organisms to environmental changes. As human activities increase the intensity and frequency of such changes, the need to understand responses of biological systems becomes an increa- singly urgent priority.

期刊介绍: AHR aims to provide a forum for herpetologists and related scientists interested in conducting international academic exchanges and joint studies, and a platform for introducing their newly made scientific and technological data, and publishing their research results and achievements in the world, but focusing on the Asian-Pacific Region. The principal criteria of AHR for acceptance of articles for publication are the quality and significance of the research, breadth of interest of the work to the readership, and the clarity and effectiveness of communication. AHR welcomes submission of manuscripts from authors in all countries of the world, though with a focus on the herpetological studies in the Asian and Pacific Region, including major articles, shorter communications and review articles.
