The DNA Methylation Landscape of Stickleback Reveals Patterns of Sex Chromosome Evolution and Effects of Environmental Salinity.

Genome biology and evolution - 1 Mar 2018

Metzger David C H, Schulte Patricia M

Abstract excerpt

Epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation are a key component of dosage compensation on sex chromosomes and have been proposed as an important source of phenotypic variation influencing plasticity and adaptive evolutionary processes, yet little is known about the role of DNA methylation in an ecological or evolutionary context in vertebrates. The threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) is an...
