“…tritici), the causal agent of wheat powdery mildew, according to a recent study. Differentially methylated regions (DMRs) were found to be associated with hypomethylation of CHH after Bgt infection [189]. qRfg1 is a causal gene in maize that is encoded by the ZmCCT gene, which is a CCT domain-containing gene that also contains a polymorphic CACTA-like transposable element (TE1) c. It is located 2.4 kilobases upstream of the ZmCCT gene, which is involved in human allelic variation.…”

Climate change has had a significant impact on many ecosystems worldwide, prompting native population species to adapt to the current weather patterns eventually. Pre-existing genetic variation in populations explains part of this adaptation. Still, recent studies have shown that new stable phenotypes can be generated through epigenetic modifications in just a few generations, thereby contributing to the stability and survival of plants in their natural habitat as they eventually adjust to the surrounding impacts. The state of chromatin inside plant cells varies, allowing cells to fine-tune their transcriptional profiles to better adapt to stimuli from the external environment. Within a cell, chromatin state changes such as post-transcriptional histone modifications and variations, DNA methylation, and non-coding RNA activity are all examples of chromatin state alterations that may epigenetically dictate certain transcriptional outputs. Recent advances in the field of ‘Omics’ in major crops has made it easier to identify epigenetic changes and their impact on plant responses to environmental stresses. These epigenetic mechanisms thus play an important role in improving crop adaptation and resilience to changing environments. This variation that has emerged can thus be exploited in crop breeding, ultimately leading to the generation of stable climate-resilient genotypes.
