Excited to share this work led by @tinacai.bsky.social recently out in @molecology.bsky.social!
We show that different tissues exhibit distinct DNA methylation responses to in situ microhabitats in reciprocally-transplanted California mussels:

Tissue‐Specific Plasticity of DNA Methylation Across Intertidal Microhabitats in Juvenile Mussels (Mytilus californianus)
Epigenetic modifications to DNA are proposed to underpin plastic responses to environmental change, and the manner in which DNA methylation contributes to plasticity likely differs among tissues. How...
