Abstract excerpt
MAIN CONCLUSION: In ddm1 mutants, the DNA methylation is primarily affected in the heterochromatic region of the chromosomes, which is associated with the segregation distortion of SNPs in the F2 progenies. Segregation distortion (SD) is common in most genetic mapping experiments and a valuable resource to determine how gene loci induce deviation. Meiotic DNA crossing over and SD are under the control of several...
