Examining the Causes and Consequences of Context-Specific Differential DNA Methylation in Maize.

Plant physiology - 1 Aug 2015

Abstract excerpt

DNA methylation is a stable modification of chromatin that can contribute to epigenetic variation through the regulation of genes or transposons. Profiling of DNA methylation in five maize (Zea mays) inbred lines found that while DNA methylation levels for more than 99% of the analyzed genomic regions are similar, there are still 5,000 to 20,000 context-specific differentially methylated regions (DMRs) between...
