Epigenetic‐induced alterations in sex‐ratios in response to climate change: An epigenetic trap?
22 Aug 2016
Abstract excerpt
We hypothesize that under the predicted scenario of climate change epigenetically mediated environmental sex determination could become an epigenetic trap. Epigenetically regulated environmental sex determination is a mechanism by which species can modulate their breeding strategies to accommodate environmental change. Growing evidence suggests that epigenetic mechanisms may play a key role in phenotypic...
