Epigenetic inheritance in plants refers to the transmission of traits governed by changes in gene expression rather than alterations in the DNA sequence itself. This can occur through mechanisms like DNA methylation, histone modifications, and RNA-associated silencing, which regulate gene activity without modifying the genetic code. These modifications often arise in response to environmental conditions, enabling plants to adapt across generations to stressors such as drought or extreme temperatures. The study of plant epigenetics is essential for understanding how traits linked to resilience and productivity can be passed down, offering insights for breeding programs that aim to produce crops with enhanced stress tolerance and adaptability.
