  "summary": "Environmental exposures can induce epigenetic modifications that persist across generations, potentially contributing to the transmission of environmentally-induced phenotypes. However, the extent to which such persistence of molecular changes are maintained independently of genetic mechanisms remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the evolution and genetic determinism of DNA methylation…",
