Schematic of acclimation and the potential directional outcomes of adaptation. In addition to restored and unrestored states, which reflect the phenotype of the unstressed and stressed ancestor, respectively, evolved clones may exhibit partially restored, over-restored or reinforced phenotypes. Not shown are cases of novelty, in which evolved clones differ from ancestral treatments that do not differ
