Sex‐specific fitness effects of unpredictable early life conditions are associated with <scp>DNA</scp> methylation in the avian glucocorticoid receptor

20 Nov 2015

Abstract excerpt

Organisms can adapt to variable environments by using environmental cues to modulate developmental gene expression. In principle, maternal influences can adaptively adjust offspring phenotype when early life and adult environments match, but they may be maladaptive when future environments are not predictable. One of the best-studied 'maternal effects' is through modification of the offspring's...
