Stochastic developmental variation, an epigenetic source of phenotypic diversity with far-reaching biological consequences.

Journal of biosciences - 1 Mar 2015

Vogt Günter

Abstract excerpt

This article reviews the production of different phenotypes from the same genotype in the same environment by stochastic cellular events, nonlinear mechanisms during patterning and morphogenesis, and probabilistic self-reinforcing circuitries in the adult life. These aspects of phenotypic variation are summarized under the term 'stochastic developmental variation' (SDV) in the following. In the past, SDV has been...
