Transgenerational inheritance of induced changes in the epigenetic state of chromatin in plants.

Genes & genetic systems - 1 Jan 2012

Abstract excerpt

There is growing experimental evidence from both animals and plants that changes in the environment can have profound effects on the epigenetic state of chromatin in nuclei. The epigenetic state of chromatin and the cell-specific transcription profile of genes are mitotically stable and, sometimes, can be transmitted across generations. Plants often show stable transgenerational inheritance of induced alterations...
