PLASTICITY FOR CHANGES. “In contrast, a major secondary metabolite pathway in Arabidopsis showed a significantly increased level of gene duplication and intraspecific gene expression variation, suggesting that this pathway may be structured to cope with fluctuating selection in the wild. As such, the influence of gene duplication on intraspecific gene expression variation partly depends upon the biological function of the gene involved.”
