Increased Stress Tolerance in Plants as a Result of Parental Effects
Parental effects occur when phenotypes are not only shaped by genotypes and the environment experienced by the organism, but also intrinsic and/or... -
Genome-wide methylome stability and parental effects in the worldwide distributed Lombardy poplar
BackgroundDespite the increasing number of epigenomic studies in plants, little is known about the forces that shape the methylome in long-lived...

Genome-Wide Effects on Gene Expression Between Parental and Filial Generations of Trisomy 11 and 12 of Rice
Aneuploid refers to the gene dosage imbalance due to copy number alterations. Aneuploidy is generally harmful to the growth, development and...

Genetic associations with parental investment from conception to wealth inheritance in six cohorts
Genetic inheritance is not the only way parents’ genes may affect children. It is also possible that parents’ genes are associated with investments...

The association between parental internalizing disorders and child school performance
Parents play a crucial role in children’s lives. Despite high prevalences of anxiety and depression, we do not know how these disorders among parents...

Parental Care
Parastrachia japonensis Scott (Heteroptera: Parastrachiidae) mothers guard eggs and nymphs and provision nymph-containing nests with drupes of the... -
The effects of egg incubation temperature and parental cross on the swimming activity of juvenile brown trout Salmo trutta
AbstractPersonality varies among individuals and is influenced by the environment. Here, we tested the hypothesis that egg incubation temperature had...

Effect of parental age on developmental rate polymorphism of the ladybird beetle, Propylea dissecta
Parental age plays a major role in determining the life history attributes of an organism. Variation in parental age can have a big impact on...

Parental environmental effects on seed quality and germination response to temperature of Crotalaria longirostrata Hook. & Arn.
The interest in the agriculture and consumption products of Crotalaria longirostrata Hook. & Arn. (“Chipilin”) plants is increasing; therefore, seeds...

Food availability in the nursery affects parental food allocation but not tadpole begging performance in a frog with facultative parental care
Parents often have the opportunity to invest in offspring that offer different returns, with such variation arising from factors intrinsic to the...

Map** of main and hidden epistatic QTL effects in spring wheat population using medium parental FHB resistance
Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a devastating disease lowering the yield and quality of wheat. Intensive use of limited allelic pools critically...

Parental conflict driven regulation of endosperm cellularization by a family of Auxin Response Factors
The endosperm is a reproductive tissue supporting embryo development. In most flowering plants, the initial divisions of endosperm nuclei are not...

The role of parental environmental self-identity in active travel behavior within parent–adolescent dyads
Active travel in everyday life offers the opportunity to increase physical activity (PA), supports young people in their development, and is more...

Measurement of response to selection in silkworm commercial hybrids against individual selection of parental lines
Six parental pure lines of Iran silkworm were recorded individually, with forty males and forty females in each of these six parental lines acting as...

Parental competition for the regulators of chromatin dynamics in mouse zygotes
The underlying mechanism for parental asymmetric chromatin dynamics is still unclear. To reveal this, we investigate chromatin dynamics in...

Are brood sex ratios adaptive? – The effect of experimentally altered brood sex ratios on parental feeding behaviour
AbstractCorrelations between brood sex ratios (BSRs) and parental or environmental quality have been found in many species. This phenomenon is called...

Transgenerational effects of grandparental and parental diets combine with early-life learning to shape adaptive foraging phenotypes in Amblyseius swirskii
Transgenerational effects abound in animals. While a great deal of research has been dedicated to the effects of maternal stressors such as diet...

The patterns and participants of parental histone recycling during DNA replication in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Epigenetic information carried by histone modifications not only reflects the state of gene expression, but also participates in the maintenance of...

The relationship between 11 different polygenic longevity scores, parental lifespan, and disease diagnosis in the UK Biobank
Large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWAS) strongly suggest that most traits and diseases have a polygenic component. This observation has...

Parental Care
Parental care is defined as any activity by a parent that contributes to increasing the fitness of its offspring (Clutton-Brock 1991). It can begin...
