Background In recent years, epigenetics has gained a central role in the understanding of
the process of natural selection. It is now clear how environmental impacts on the …

Many species are threatened by climate change and must rapidly respond to survive in
changing environments. Epigenetic modifications, such as DNA methylation, can facilitate …

Phenotypic plasticity, which is sometimes referred to as an environmental driven phenotypic
variation, is the capacity of a genotype to create a variety of phenotypes under different …
