Résumé
Recent population genomic studies in plants have shed new light on natural epigenetic variation by identifying key genetic determinants, "trans modifiers," that influence epigenetic states genome-wide and their interplay with environmental factors. Here, we review this progress by focusing on the epigenetic control of transposition and life-cycle transitions to highlight the ecological consequences of this genetic architecture and its evolutionary significance. This knowledge provides new opportunities to address long-standing questions about the establishment of environment-associated epigenetic variation and its relevance in adaptation.
