Chromatin Remodelling Complexes in Plant Adaptation to Abiotic Stress: Mechanisms and Perspectives

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As sessile organisms, plants have evolved elaborate epigenetic regulatory networks to adapt to a wide range of abiotic stress. Chromatin remodelling is a core epigenetic regulatory mechanism that refers to the process by which chromatin remodelling complexes mediate dynamic changes in chromatin spatial conformation and DNA accessibility ...

Epigenetic Inheritance: Concepts, Mechanisms and Perspectives

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
Parents’ stressful experiences can influence an offspring’s vulnerability to many pathological conditions, including psychopathologies, and their effects may even endure for several generations.

Evidence for transgenerational transmission of epigenetic tumor susceptibility in Drosophila

PLoS Genetics, 2005
Transgenerational epigenetic inheritance results from incomplete erasure of parental epigenetic marks during epigenetic reprogramming at fertilization. The significance of this phenomenon, and the mechanism by which it occurs, remains obscure. Here, we show that genetic mutations in Drosophila may cause epigenetic alterations that, when inherited ...

Insider/Outsider/Transsiders of Transnational Migration

Studies in Ethnicity and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Migration is individually and collectively a challenging but also a transformative praxis and process. In my proposal, I present these in the context of transnational migration of two multigenerational families whose pioneers originally migrated from Turkey to Germany.

Primordial germ cells as a potential model for understanding (Nutri) epigenetic - metabolic interactions: a mini review

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Primordial germ cells (PGCs) are the progenitors of gametes (sperm and eggs), making them crucial for understanding germline transmission and epigenetic modifications, which are critical for studying transgenerational effects of nutrition and metabolic ...

Performative Anchoring Practices and the Making of Belonging in Diaspora

Studies in Ethnicity and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines how Greekness is constructed and negotiated by a member of the Greek second generation in Italy, a population largely absent from contemporary diaspora scholarship. Through a biographical and socio‐anthropological approach grounded in long‐term ethnographic fieldwork, the study shows how belonging emerges not as inherited

Executive Function and Epigenetic Markers in Youth Exposed to Family and Community Violence in Childhood

Developmental Psychobiology, Volume 68, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Although exposure to violence has been linked to executive functioning impairments, the biological mechanisms underlying this association remain unclear. This study examined CpG sites associated with executive functions in 78 young adults and their links to family (psychological and physical) and community violence during childhood. The scales

Transgenerational Transmission of the Beliefs of Competent Parenting

Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2014
AbstractTransgenerational transmission of family values and beliefs in upbringing children is performed continuously from generation to generation. Family system of values is determined by emotional relationships, attitude towards the family goals, principles, distribution of authority, and the preferred method of parenting style.

Paternal Exposure to the Neonicotinoid Pesticide Clothianidin Alters Sperm MicroRNA Profiles in Mice and Intergenerationally Reduces Locomotor Activity in Male Offspring

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 9, Page 3164-3176, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence suggests that paternal environmental factors have epigenetic effects on sperm and influence offspring. Neonicotinoid pesticides (NNs), which are widely used around the world, are known to affect offspring phenotypes through maternal exposure in mice, but the effect of the paternal exposure remains unknown.
