Allele-specific cis-regulatory methylation of the gene for vasoactive intestinal peptide in white-throated sparrows.

Genes, brain, and behavior - 1 Nov 2022

Abstract excerpt

White-throated sparrows (Zonotrichia albicollis) offer a unique opportunity to connect genotype with behavioral phenotype. In this species, a rearrangement of the second chromosome is linked with territorial aggression; birds with a copy of this "supergene" rearrangement are more aggressive than those without it. The supergene has captured the gene VIP, which encodes vasoactive intestinal peptide, a...
