Genomic analysis of many nonmodel species has uncovered an incredible diversity of sex
chromosome systems, making it possible to empirically test the rich body of evolutionary …

Marine organisms' persistence hinges on the capacity for acclimatization and adaptation to
the myriad of interacting environmental stressors associated with global climate change. In …

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 …

Epigenetic inheritance has been proposed to contribute to adaptation and acclimation via
two information channels:(i) inducible epigenetic marks that enable transgenerational …

Epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation, histone modifications and non-coding
RNAs are increasingly targeted in studies of natural populations. Here, I review some of the …

Epigenetic variation is often characterized by modifications to DNA that do not alter the
underlying nucleotide sequence, but can influence behavior, morphology, and physiological …

The biology of fish sperm, an important topic in the research of reproduction and fisheries
from basic science to evolutionary and applied aspects, has implications for aquaculture …

Epigenetics plays a vital role in the interaction between living organisms and their
environment by regulating biological functions and phenotypic plasticity. Considering that …

The hypothesis that epigenetic mechanisms of gene expression regulation have two main
roles in vertebrate sex is presented. First, and within a given generation, by contributing to …

Epigenetic modifications, like DNA methylation, generate phenotypic diversity in fish and
ultimately lead to adaptive evolutionary processes. Euryhaline marine species that migrate …
