Abstract excerpt
RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) and ROS1-dependent active DNA demethylation pathways are antagonistic processes that dynamically regulate site-specific methylation. In this study, we obtained a mutant with reduced luciferase (LUC) luminescence by genetic screening, which was named rll5-1 (for reduced LUC luminescence 5-1). The rll5-1 mutant showed narrower, frizzled and curly leaves, and the...
