The adaptive value of phenotypic plasticity for performance under single stressors is well documented. However, plasticity may only truly be adaptive in the natural multifactorial environment if it confers resilience to stressors of a different nature, a phenomenon known as cross-tolerance. An understanding of the mechanistic basis of cross-tolerance is essential to aid prediction of species resilience to future environmental change. Here, we identified mechanisms underpinning cross-tolerance be ...[more]
