Abstract excerpt
Uniparental gene expression, observed in both animals and plants, is termed genomic imprinting. Genomic imprinting is a well-known epigenetic phenomenon regulated through epigenetic modifications such as DNA methylation and histone modifications. Recent genome-wide studies of endosperm transcription have revealed the rapid change of imprinted genes between species, suggesting the flexibility of this phenomenon....
