That is surprising as epigenetics can influence gene function, is inherited via mitosis and or meiosis and can occur both from the female and male lines. Epigenetics have been shown to affect gene expression and can thereby play a strong role on the construction and plasticity of phenotypes in many plant and animal species, including poultry.
