Epigenetic and Genetic Contributions to Adaptation in Chlamydomonas.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Sept 2017

Kronholm Ilkka, Bassett Andrew, Baulcombe David, Collins Sinéad

Abstract excerpt

Epigenetic modifications, such as DNA methylation or histone modifications, can be transmitted between cellular or organismal generations. However, there are no experiments measuring their role in adaptation, so here we use experimental evolution to investigate how epigenetic variation can contribute to adaptation. We manipulated DNA methylation and histone acetylation in the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas...
