contents The impacts of diet on cardiac performance under changing environments. Eliason, Erika J Hardison, Emily A Animals Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena Diet Environment Heart Natural and anthropogenic stressors are dramatically altering environments, impacting key animal physiological traits, including cardiac performance. Animals require energy and nutrients from their diet to support cardiac performance and plasticity; however, the nutritional landscape is changing in response to environmental perturbations. Diet quantity, quality and options vary in space and time across heterogeneous environments, over the lifetime of an organism and in response to environmental stressors. Variation in dietary energy and nutrients (e.g. lipids, amino acids, vitamins, minerals) impact the heart's structure and performance, and thus whole-animal resilience to environmental change. Notably, many animals can alter their diet in response to environmental cues, depending on the context. Yet, most studies feed animals ad libitum using a fixed diet, thus underestimating the role of food in impacting cardiac performance and resilience. By applying an ecological lens to the study of cardiac plasticity, this Commentary aims to further our understanding of cardiac function in the context of environmental change.
