Epigenetic Responses to Temperature and Climate.

Integrative and comparative biology - 16 Dec 2020

McCaw Beth A, Stevenson Tyler J, Lancaster Lesley T

Abstract excerpt

Epigenetics represents a widely accepted set of mechanisms by which organisms respond to the environment by regulating phenotypic plasticity and life history transitions. Understanding the effects of environmental control on phenotypes and fitness, via epigenetic mechanisms, is essential for understanding the ability of organisms to rapidly adapt to environmental change. This review highlights the significance of...
