[HTML][HTML] Transgenerational epigenetic inheritance: myths and mechanisms
E Heard, RA Martienssen - Cell, 2014 - cell.com
Since the human genome was sequenced, the term" epigenetics" is increasingly being
associated with the hope that we are more than just the sum of our genes. Might what we …

[HTML][HTML] Genomic diversifications of five Gossypium allopolyploid species and their impact on cotton improvement
Polyploidy is an evolutionary innovation for many animals and all flowering plants, but its
impact on selection and domestication remains elusive. Here we analyze genome evolution …

Coevolution between transposable elements and recombination
One of the most striking patterns of genome structure is the tight, typically negative,
association between transposable elements (TEs) and meiotic recombination rates. While …

Epigenetic activation of meiotic recombination near Arabidopsis thaliana centromeres via loss of H3K9me2 and non-CG DNA methylation
Eukaryotic centromeres contain the kinetochore, which connects chromosomes to the
spindle allowing segregation. During meiosis, centromeres are suppressed for inter …
