Currently, the world is facing the negative impact of global warming on all living beings.
Adverse effects of global warming are also becoming obvious in dairy cattle breeding. In …

It is widely accepted that the epigenome can act as the link between environmental cues,
both external and internal, to the organism and phenotype by converting the environmental …

5-methylcytosine (5mC) on CpG dinucleotides has been viewed as the major epigenetic
modification in eukaryotes for a long time. Apart from 5mC, additional DNA modifications …

Metaboloepigenetic regulation has been reported in stem cells, germ cells, and tumor cells.
Embryonic metaboloepigenetics, however, have just begun to be described. Here we …

The morphokinetics of pronuclei (PN) are considered crucial factors affecting
embryogenesis in mammals. Whereas, since bovine zygotes contain a large number of …

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

Since the announcement of the birth of Dolly, the world's first mammal produced by cloning,
it was demonstrated for the first time that somatic cells could be reprogrammed to produce a …

Investigation of the role of epigenetics in cattle breeding is gaining importance. DNA
methylation represents an epigenetic modification which is essential for genomic stability …

Zygotic epigenetic reprogramming is the major initial event in embryo development to
acquire a totipotent potential. However, the patterns of epigenetic modifications in bovine …

Epigenetic effects are considered as a mechanism of the emergence of new inherited traits
with their transmission between generations through meiosis. Modern genomic evaluation …
