Abstract excerpt
Phenotypic plasticity of metabolism and growth are essential for adaptation to new environmental conditions, such as those experienced during domestication. Epigenetic regulation plays a key role in this process but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood, especially in the case of hydroxymethylation. Using reduced representation 5-hydroxymethylcytosine profiling, we compared the liver hydroxymethylomes...
