Abstract: Abstract Triploidy is a common form of genetic improvement that confers benefits associated with reduced fecundity. Triploid oysters produce fewer gametes yet undergo gametogenesis and develop gonads to variable extents. The variable and typically abnormal… read more here.

Abstract: Populations may respond to environmental heterogeneity via evolutionary divergence or phenotypic plasticity. While evolutionary divergence occurs through DNA sequence differences among populations, plastic divergence among populations may be generated by changes in the epigenome. Here,… read more here.
