Major progress has been made with genomic and genetic studies in aquaculture in the last
decade. However, research on epigenetic regulation of aquaculture traits is still at an early …

Bluehead wrasses undergo dramatic, socially cued female-to-male sex change. We apply
transcriptomic and methylome approaches in this wild coral reef fish to identify the primary …

The role of epigenetics in development has garnered attention in recent years due to their
ability to modulate the embryonic developmental gene expression in response to the …

Interpreting the function and metabolism of enzymatic DNA modifications requires both
position-specific and global quantities. Sequencing-based techniques that deliver the former …

Abstract Microcystin-leucine-arginine (MC-LR) adversely affects male reproduction and
interferes with the development of the offspring. Here, we establish a zebrafish (Danio rerio) …

Epigenetics is a discipline that studies potentially reversible heritable changes in gene
expression with no structural modifications in the DNA sequence. The epigenetic machinery …

DNA methylation [5-methylcytosine (5mC)] is a repressive gene-regulatory mark required for
vertebrate embryogenesis. Genomic 5mC is tightly regulated through the action of DNA …

Epigenetic mechanisms are important not only for development but also for genome stability
and chromosome dynamics. The latter types of epigenetic controls can often be …

As aquaculture and livestock production and human demands increase, much effort has
been focused on improving production efficiency, health and well‐being of agricultural …

Early animal development is characterized by intense reorganization of the embryonic
genome, including large-scale changes in chromatin structure and in the DNA and histone …
