Abstract
Whether epigenetic variation is important in adaptive evolution has been contentious. Two recent studies in Arabidopsis thaliana significantly add to our understanding of genome-wide variation and stability of an epigenetic mark, and thus help pave the path for realistically incorporating epigenetics into evolutionary theory.
摘要
表观遗传变异在适应进化中是否重要一直存在争议。最近在拟南芥中进行的两项研究极大地增加了我们对全基因组表观遗传标记变异和稳定性的理解，从而为将表观遗传学切实纳入进化理论铺平了道路。
