Epigenetic correlates of plant phenotypic plasticity: DNA methylation differs between prickly and nonprickly leaves in heterophyllous Ilex aquifolium (Aquifoliaceae) trees (2013, methodology): “By documenting here, for the first time, a correlation between herbivory-induced heterophylly and leaf DNA methylation profile, our results provide additional support for the emerging threeway relationship between herbivory, phenotypic plasticity and epigenetic changes in plants (Verhoeven et al., 2”
Do plants remember drought? : Hints towards a drought-memory in grasses (2011, unknown): “Epigenetic modifications can be inherited through itosis or even meiosis (Goh et al., 2003; Bird, 2007; Bruce et al., 007; Verhoeven et al., 2010).”
Epigenetics for behavioral ecologists (2013, background): “In another study, plants exposed to simulated herbivore or pathogen damage had up to 30% change in genome-wide methylation polymorphisms compared with genetically identical controls, and some of the environmentally induced epigenetic modifications persisted across generations (Verhoeven et al. 2010)”
