Epigenetic pathways are essential in different biological processes and in phenotype-
environment interactions in response to different stressors and they can induce phenotypic …

Marine organisms' persistence hinges on the capacity for acclimatization and adaptation to
the myriad of interacting environmental stressors associated with global climate change. In …

The swiftly changing climate presents a challenge to organismal fitness by creating a
mismatch between the current environment and phenotypes adapted to historic conditions …

Epigenetics has attracted considerable attention with respect to its potential value in many
areas of agricultural production, particularly under conditions where the environment can be …

Epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation have the potential to affect organism
acclimatization and adaptation to environmental changes by influencing their phenotypic …

The persistence of reef building corals is threatened by human-induced environmental
change. Maintaining coral reefs into the future requires not only the survival of adults, but …

Recent insights in evolutionary biology have shed light on epigenetic variation that interacts
with genetic variation to convey heritable information. An important characteristic of …

The effect of environmental pollution on epigenetic changes and their heredity in affected
organisms is of major concern as such changes can play a significant role in adaptation to …

Populations may respond to environmental heterogeneity via evolutionary divergence or
