Complementary genetic and epigenetic changes facilitate rapid adaptation to multiple global change stressors - Ocean Acidification

Complementary genetic and epigenetic changes facilitate rapid adaptation to multiple global change stressors - Ocean Acidification

Significance Organisms must adapt or acclimate to survive global change, but how these processes interact and the role of epigenetic variation is unknown. We experimentally evolved the marine copepod Acartia tonsa for 25 generations in global change conditions and measured their genomic, epigenomic, and gene expression responses. We found that both genetic and epigenetic changes contributed to […] The post Complementary genetic and epigenetic ch…
