The impact of paternal PTSD-like stress on cognitive behavior and hippocampal BDNF expression in adolescent male and female rat offspring: modulatory effects of lithium [PDF]

open access: yesBehavioral and Brain Functions
Prenatal stress may lead to cognitive and behavioral dysfunction in the offspring. Large evidence has shown the deleterious effects of maternal stress on cognitive and behavioral functions of the offspring; however, the effect of paternal stress has not ...

Paternal effects in the initiation of migratory behaviour in birds. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2021
AbstractWhat determines why some birds migrate and others do not? This question is fundamental to understanding how migratory systems are responding to environmental changes, but the causes of individual migratory behaviours have proven difficult to isolate.

Paternal Dietary Methionine Supplementation Improves Carcass Traits and Meat Quality of Chicken Progeny

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
The effects that maternal dietary methionine have on progeny have been reported on broilers. However, the paternal effects are not known, so the current study was conducted to explore the influences of paternal dietary methionine (Met) have on progeny ...

Separating Paternal and Maternal Contributions to Thermal Transgenerational Plasticity

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Climate change is rapidly altering the thermal environment in terrestrial and aquatic systems. Transgenerational thermal plasticity (TGP) – which occurs when the temperatures experienced by the parental generation prior to the fertilization of gametes ...

Parents exposed to warming produce offspring lower in weight and condition

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
The parental environment can alter offspring phenotypes via the transfer of non‐genetic information. Parental effects may be viewed as an extension of (within‐generation) phenotypic plasticity.

Paternal effects on early embryogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental & Clinical Assisted Reproduction, 2008
Historically, less attention has been paid to paternal effects on early embryogenesis than maternal effects. However, it is now apparent that certain male factor infertility phenotypes are associated with increased DNA fragmentation and/or chromosome aneuploidies that may compromise early embryonic development.

The Effect of Paternal Incarceration on Material Hardship [PDF]

open access: yesSocial Service Review, 2011
Widespread use of incarceration in the US, coupled with high rates of inmate fatherhood, has raised concerns for the wellbeing of more than two million affected children. The deleterious and long term effects of incarceration on men's financial and relationship stability are well-established.
