ABSTRACT Soybeans, one of the most important legumes, face multiple stresses including drought and herbivory. But the potential transfer of the interactive effects of these stressors onto the transgenerational plants has not been understood. We hypothesised that progeny from stressed parents will have enhanced ecophysiology and defence traits through ...

Our factorial experimental design investigates the relationships between DNA methylation, plant development and individual fitness under stress in Erodium cicutarium. We found that epigenetic modifications associated to 5‐azacytidine seed treatment desynchronized plant growth and delayed flowering.

Seed pretreatment length when producing seeds for restoration may impact seed dormancy in offspring
Abstract Introduction Seed dormancy regulates germination timing to improve seedling survival. Many temperate species produce physiologically dormant seeds, requiring winter conditions (i.e. moist‐cold stratification) to overcome dormancy. Exposing seeds to suboptimal stratification lengths for restoration may alter genetic diversity and/or ...

Impact of diet and exercise in growth restricted female rats on nephron endowment in male fetuses
Abstract Uteroplacental insufficiency impairs kidney development and programs male‐onset cardiorenal disease, which can be transmitted to subsequent generations. Maternal lifestyle factors can independently influence fetal kidney development, highlighting that the lifestyle of growth‐restricted females can have further influence on F2 kidney ...

ABSTRACT This article employs Frantz Fanon's sociogenic method to analyze the MustFall# student protest movement as an illustration of the psychic afterlife of colonialism in postapartheid South Africa. Fanon's sociogeny, which locates the formation of subjectivity in the reciprocal interplay between the psychic and the political, offers a framework ...

ABSTRACT Objective Eating disorder (ED) history may impact mother‐child communication during mealtimes and contribute to transgenerational transmission of ED. This study employed machine learning (ML) to identify speech characteristics during mother‐child feeding interactions, aiming for investigating whether vocalised affective characteristics differ ...

Introducing Epigenetics Into Secondary School Classrooms—An Educational Design Study
ABSTRACT Although epigenetics represents an emerging field of biological research with a potentially large influence on society as well as conceptual implications on how genetics is understood, it is often not a part of the biology education provided at secondary schools.

Abstract Epigenetic regulation plays a central role in coordinating peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) fruit pegging, a unique developmental process in which fertilized ovaries transition from aerial growth to subterranean pod formation. This review synthesizes current evidence demonstrating that dynamic interactions among DNA methylation, histone ...

ABSTRACT Background Violence experienced by women has serious consequences for maternal and child health, generating short‐ and long‐term damage. Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the relation between violence experienced by women and the mother–child bond in the first 6 months after childbirth and on the child's mental health at ...
