Deciphering Epigenetic Mechanisms: The Role of DNA Methylation in Driving Phenotypic Diversity and Evolutionary Adaptation in Chickpea (<em>Cicer arietinum</em>)
2024-08-29
Abstract excerpt
This study explores the critical role of DNA methylation in shaping phenotypic diversity and driving evolutionary adaptation in chickpea (Cicer arietinum). By employing whole-genome bisulfite sequencing and advanced genomic techniques, we analyzed DNA methylation patterns across various chickpea cultivars, focusing on key adaptive traits such as drought tolerance, disease resistance, seed size, and flowering time....
