Evolutionary genetics

the proposal that imprinting evolves because silencing paternal copies lets offspring traits match maternal traits, favoring well-integrated mother-offspring interaction.

In evolutionary genetics, coadaptation theory of genomic imprinting refers to the proposal that imprinting evolves because silencing paternal copies lets offspring traits match maternal traits, favoring well-integrated mother-offspring interaction. This meaning comes from Wolf (2006) in PLoS Biology.[1]
