Abstract excerpt
Heritable epimutations can lead to transmissible phenotypic variation. However, the contribution of epigenetic variations to phenotypic diversity in plant evolution and crop domestication remains elusive. In this study, we constructed a comprehensive DNA methylation atlas of 1102 soybean accessions, including wild soybeans, landraces, and improved cultivars. Integrated analysis of the methylome, variome, and...
