Convergent and divergent evolution of genomic imprinting in the marsupial Monodelphis domestica
BACKGROUND: Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon resulting in parent-of-origin specific monoallelic gene expression. It is postulated to have evolved in placental mammals to modulate intrauterine resource allocation to the offspring. In this study, we determined the imprint status of metat...
