Expression levels of the four dnmt genes in lecithotrophic stages of sole incubated at 16 and 20 °C. Cumulative-degree hour was used to normalize larval developmental stages between different temperature groups. Data are expressed as the mean fold change (mean + SD, n = 3) from the calibrator group (173 CDH at 20 °C). Asterisks denote significant differences between different temperature treatments for the same CDH (P < 0.05). Different letters denote statistically significant differences due to age for each gene (P < 0.05)
