Abstract excerpt
Epigenetic variation can play a crucial role in explaining the missing heritability of complex traits. To investigate genome-wide methylation in spring barley (Hordeum vulgare subsp. vulgare), we performed whole genome bisulfite sequencing on 23 parental inbreds from a community resource for genetic mapping. Our objectives were to characterize methylation variation, explore its association with single nucleotide...
