Importance of parental genome balance in the generation of novel yet heritable epigenetic and transcriptional states during doubled haploid breeding

J. Price, J. Antunez-Sanchez, N. Hussain, A. Wibowo, R. Papareddy, C. Becker, G. Teakle, G. Barker, D. Weigel, J. Gutierrez-Marcos

The paper identifies imbalanced parental genome contributions as a source of transcriptional and epigenetic variation in doubled haploid plants, revealing a role for epigenetic modification of transposons in generating heritable phenotypic diversity.
