Multi-Tissue Methylation Clocks for Age and Sex Estimation in the Common Bottlenose Dolphin

Multi-Tissue Methylation Clocks for Age and Sex Estimation in the Common Bottlenose Dolphin

Accurate identification of individual ages within wild bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) is critical for determining population health and the development of population management strategies. As such, we analyzed DNA methylation (DNAm) patterns by applying a custom methylation array (HorvathM...
