Description: Environmentally induced phenotypes have been proposed to initiate and bias adaptive evolutionary change towards particular directions. The potential for this to happen depends in part on how well plastic responses are aligned with the additive genetic variance and covariance in traits. Using meta-analysis, we test whether plastic responses to novel environments tend to occur along phenotype dimensions that harbour substantial amounts of additive genetic variation.
