While the field of epigenetics is increasingly recognized to contribute to the emergence of
phenotypes in mammalian research models across different developmental and …

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 …

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 …

Epigenetic mechanisms are an underappreciated and often ignored component of an
organism's response to environmental change and may underlie many types of phenotypic …

The historically recent domestication of fishes has been essential to meet the protein
demands of a growing human population. Selection for traits of interest during domestication …

The spermatozoa and oocyte are very specialized cells which possess the unique ability to
fuse and to produce an embryo. This embryo will develop into a mature organism capable of …

Epigenetic marks affecting the expression of genes are triggered by environmental stimuli,
can persist throughout life or across multiple generations and can affect an individuals …

Teleost fish, which roughly make up half of the extant vertebrate species, exhibit an amazing
level of biodiversity affecting their morphology, ecology and behaviour as well as many other …

Half of all vertebrate species are teleost fish. What accounts for this explosion of
biodiversity? Recent evidence and advances in evolutionary theory suggest that genomic …

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) is one of a number of teleost fish species frequently employed in
toxicology. Toxico-genomics determines global transcriptomic responses to chemical …
