Contribution of trans regulatory eQTL to cryptic genetic variation in C. elegans

Contribution of trans regulatory eQTL to cryptic genetic variation in C. elegans

Abstract Background Cryptic genetic variation (CGV) is the hidden genetic variation that can be unlocked by perturbing normal conditions. CGV can drive the emergence of novel complex phenotypes through changes in gene expression. Although our theoretical understanding of CGV has thoroughly increased...
