Identification of Histone H3 (HH3) Genes in Gossypium hirsutum Revealed Diverse Expression During Ovule Development and Stress Responses.

abstract：:Ubiquitous exposure to bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine disruptor (ED), has raised concerns for both human and ecosystem health. Epigenetic factors, including microRNAs (miRNAs), are key regulators of gene expression during cancer. The effect of BPA exposure on the zebrafish epigenome remains poorly characterized. Zebr...
