An equilibrium for phenotypic variance in fluctuating environments owing to epigenetics.

Abstract excerpt

The connection between random environments and genetic and phenotypic variability has been a major focus in the population genetic literature. By providing differential access to the underlying genetic information, epigenetic variation could play an important role in the interaction between envir...
