Transgenerational epigenetic effects.

Annual review of genomics and human genetics - 1 Jan 2008

Youngson Neil A, Whitelaw Emma

Abstract excerpt

Transgenerational epigenetic effects include all processes that have evolved to achieve the nongenetic determination of phenotype. There has been a long-standing interest in this area from evolutionary biologists, who refer to it as non-Mendelian inheritance. Transgenerational epigenetic effects include both the physiological and behavioral (intellectual) transfer of information across generations. Although in...
