Alterations in Histone Methylation States Increased Profusion of <i>Lethal(2)-Essential-for-Life-Like (l(2)elf)</i>, Trithorax and Polycomb Genes in <i>Apis mellifera</i> under Heat Stress

Histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) represent a key mechanism in the thermal adaptation of the honeybee <i>Apis mellifera</i>. In this study, a chromatin immunoprecipitation assay and qPCR were employed to explore the changes in the methylation states of H3K4m2, H3K4m3, H3K27...
