The Seagrass Methylome Is Associated With Variation in Photosynthetic Performance Among Clonal Shoots

Evolutionary theory predicts that clonal organisms are more susceptible to extinction than sexually reproducing organisms, due to low genetic variation and slow rates of evolution. In agreement, conservation management considers genetic variation as the ultimate measure of a population’s ability to...
