Abstract:Ocean acidification significantly affects marine calcifiers like oysters, warranting the study of molecular mechanisms that contribute to adaptive plasticity in response to environmental change like DNA methylation. However, a consensus has not been reached on the extent to which methylation modules gene expression, and in turn plasticity, in marine invertebrates. To this end, we investigated the impact of pCO2on gene expression and DNA methylation in the eastern oyster,Crassostrea virginica. After a 30-day ex… Show more
