An analysis of available transcriptomic data however reveals a direct link between the developmentally altered genes and the offspring phenotype.}, URL = {https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2016/04/12/048256}, eprint = {https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2016/04/12/048256.full.pdf}, journal = {bioRxiv} }
