Epigenetic inheritance and the missing heritability problem.

Genetics - 1 Jul 2009

Slatkin Montgomery

Abstract excerpt

Epigenetic phenomena, and in particular heritable epigenetic changes, or transgenerational effects, are the subject of much discussion in the current literature. This article presents a model of transgenerational epigenetic inheritance and explores the effect of epigenetic inheritance on the risk...
