Cytosine methylation is an important mechanism for dynamical regulation of gene
expression and transposable element (TE) mobility during plant developmental processes …

Seed development is programmed by expression of many genes in plants. Seed maturation
is an important developmental process to soybean seed quality and yield. DNA methylation …

Background Epigenetic modifications play important roles in plant and animal development.
DNA methylation impacts the transposable element (TE) silencing, gene imprinting and …

Background Cytosine methylation is crucial for gene regulation and silencing of
transposable elements in mammals and plants. While this epigenetic mark is extensively …

Background Epigenetic regulation is well recognized for its importance in gene expression

endogenous genes, although the extent to which this DNA modification functions to regulate …

Seed development is an important process of reproductive development and consists of
embryo and endosperm development; both comprise several key processes. To determine …

Chromatin modifications, such as DNA methylation, can provide heritable, epigenetic
regulation of gene expression in the absence of genetic changes. A role for DNA …
