Wanjala Joseph Posted January 12 Posted January 12 I was wondering how the environment can affect the genotype of a population over certain periods of time. Just like we all know of Lamark's theory of evolution that talks about this condition happening. I am open to any thoughts.

Eise Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Epigenetics does not mean that the genotype is changed. It means that there are changes in how the genotype is expressed. This can be acquired during a lifetime, and it turns out, that some of these changes can be given further to the offspring.
Illumina Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago some genos will be favored, and individuals possessing the favorable genotypes will continue to reproduce. environmental factors such as water and ultraviolet radiation from the sun can affect genotypes as well
