Plagioclase porphyroclasts deform by several slip systems during dislocation creep.
Dynamic recrystallization of porphyroclasts promotes onset of grain boundary sliding.
Plagioclase recrystallized matrix grains deform by grain boundary sliding.
Grain boundary sliding is dislocation-accommodated (DisGBS).
Grains deforming by DisGBS show four-grain junctions, weak LPO, and intragrain strain.
