Abstract excerpt
Epigenetic inheritance has the potential to act as an additional source of phenotypic variation in natural populations of organisms. Previous theoretical works have investigated the deleterious potential of epigenetic variation at single loci. Nevertheless, epialleles are often associated with a genetic background, including the presence or absence of nearby transposons. The presence of transposons may indirectly...
