DNA methyltransferase 3 participates in behavioral phase change in the migratory locust.

Insect biochemistry and molecular biology - 1 Jun 2020

Abstract excerpt

DNA methylation plays important roles in the behavioral plasticity of animals. The migratory locust, Locusta migratoria, displays striking density-dependent phenotypic plasticity that can reversely transit between solitarious and gregarious phases. However, the role and the mechanism through which DNA methylation is involved in locust phase change remain unknown. Here, we investigated the expression levels of...
