Epigenetic variation creates potential for evolution of plant phenotypic plasticity.

The New phytologist - 1 Jan 2013

Zhang Yuan-Ye, Fischer Markus, Colot Vincent, Bossdorf Oliver

Abstract excerpt

Heritable variation in plant phenotypes, and thus potential for evolutionary change, can in principle not only be caused by variation in DNA sequence, but also by underlying epigenetic variation. However, the potential scope of such phenotypic effects and their evolutionary significance are largely unexplored. Here, we conducted a glasshouse experiment in which we tested the response of a large number of...
