Mitochondrial methylation is linked to sexually dimorphic growth in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) by Partha Sarathi Tripathy, Partha Sarathi Tripathy, Prabhugouda Siriyappagouder, Artem Valeryevich Nedoluzhko, Artem Valeryevich Nedoluzhko, Ioannis Konstantinidis, Soumya Shephalika Dash, Bijay Kumar Behera, Janmejay Parhi, Kaja Skjærven, Francesc Piferrer, Jorge Manuel de Oliveira Fernandes, Jorge Manuel de Oliveira Fernandes

“…However, the integration of epigenetic markers in selective breeding programs remains underdeveloped, mainly due to limited understanding, particularly regarding DNA methylation’s heritability and its functional impact on growth traits. This gap is even more pronounced in mitochondrial epigenetics, despite mitochondria’s critical role in energy production and growth regulation, making it an important but underexplored area in aquaculture breeding strategies. …”
