Abstract excerpt
Two recent reports, including one by Reinders and colleagues (pp. 939-950) in the April 15, 2009, issue of Genes & Development, describe the construction of Arabidopsis recombinant inbred populations that maximize epigenetic rather than genetic variation. The distribution and behavior of phenotypic variation in these populations suggest that stable epialleles can control complex quantitative traits. However,...
