Epigenetic inheritance, epimutation, and the response to selection.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2014

Furrow Robert E

Abstract excerpt

There has been minimal theoretical exploration of the role of epigenetic variation in the response to natural selection. Using a population genetic model, I derive formulae that characterize the response of epigenetic variation to selection over multiple generations. Unlike genetic models in whic...
