Scholarly help needed:
  I am looking for good examples of heritable, non-genetic factors that
influence phenotypic form.  I'm particularly interested in cases of
heteroplasmy (of which I have vague memories w.r.t. plants and
drosophila) that might be construed as a mechanism for generating
phenotypic variance parallel to that of sexual rearrangement of genomes -
but I'll accept just about any examples from biology.
Thanks in advance,
