...Furthermore, there have been important theoretical advances in understanding the roles of phenotypic plasticity and genetic evolution in species persistence in the face of climate change (e.g. Lande 2009; Chevin et al. 2010; Bonduriansky et al. 2012)....

...This opens the way to include transgenerational effects into marine climate change studies (see Bonduriansky et al. 2012 for discussion on experimental design)....

...This is because, although some nongenetically transmitted variants can be stable over many generations (Anway et al. 2005; Richerson and Boyd 2005; Johannes et al. 2009), genetic inheritance is likely to provide greater long-term stability of the optimal phenotype....

...Exposure of pregnant rats to endocrine disruptors reduced spermatogenic capacity in male descendants, and this low-fertility phenotype was transmitted through the male line (perhaps via transgenerational epigenetic inheritance) for at least four generations (Anway et al. 2005, 2006b)....

...We do not discuss the extensive literature on niche-construction, which encompasses phenomena that extend beyond the purview of inheritance (Laland et al. 1996, 1999; Odling-Smee et al. 2003)....
