Sex dependent imprinting effects on complex traits in mice
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008 Background Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic source of variation in quantitative traits that results from monoallelic gene expression, where commonly either only the paternally- or the maternally-derived allele is expressed.

eLife, 2023 In mouse and human, genes subjected to genomic imprinting have been shown to function in development, behavior, and post-natal adaptations. Failure to correctly imprint genes in human is associated with developmental syndromes, adaptive, and metabolic ...

Fathers' eye colour sways daughters' choice of both long- and short-term partners [PDF]
, 2018 In several species, mate choice is influenced by parental features through sexual imprinting, but in humans evidence is scarce and open to alternative explanations.

The coevolution of sexual imprinting by males and females
Ecology and Evolution, 2016 Sexual imprinting is the learning of a mate preference by direct observation of the phenotype of another member of the population. Sexual imprinting can be paternal, maternal, or oblique if individuals learn to prefer the phenotypes of their fathers ...

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022 In mammals, genomic imprinting operates via gene silencing mechanisms. Although conservation of the imprinting mechanism at the H19/IGF2 locus has been generally described in pigs, tissue-specific imprinting at the transcript level, monoallelic-to ...

Do social insects support Haig's kin theory for the evolution of genomic imprinting?
Epigenetics, 2017 Although numerous imprinted genes have been described in several lineages, the phenomenon of genomic imprinting presents a peculiar evolutionary problem.

Sexual imprinting of offspring on their parents and siblings
Cogent Psychology, 2017 Based on data provided anonymously by 2,611 women and 1,452 men using a computerized questionnaire, we found that 19.2% of women vs. 16% of men (p
