Data and Code for "Geographic divergence in the mechanisms underlying physiological plasticity: Implications for responses to environmental change"

This repository contains code and data associated with the analysis of physiological plasticity, gene expression, and environmental variation in Plethodon metcalfi (Southern grey-cheeked salamander) collected along an elevational gradient. The study investigates how similar phenotypic plasticity arises through divergent molecular mechanisms across elevations, with a focus on skin resistance, metabolic rate, and gene co-expression networks.
