DNA Methylation Dynamics Reflect Sex and Status Differences in Mortality Rates in a Polygynous Bat Males of polygynous mammals often do not live as long as females and, in some cases, exhibit evidence of earlier senescence. Patterns of DNA methylation (DNAm) have recently been used to predict chro...
