DNA methylation is a chemical modification that occurs predominantly on CG dinucleotides
in mammalian genomes. However, recent studies have revealed that non-CG methylation …

Plant DNA methylation is its own language, interpreted by the cell to maintain silencing of
transposons, facilitate chromatin structure, and to ensure proper expression of some genes …

We report de novo genome assemblies, transcriptomes, annotations, and methylomes for
the 26 inbreds that serve as the founders for the maize nested association mapping …

The reference human genome sequence set the stage for studies of genetic variation and its
association with human disease, but epigenomic studies lack a similar reference. To …

Cultivated peanut (Arachis hypogaea) is an allotetraploid with closely related subgenomes
of a total size of∼ 2.7 Gb. This makes the assembly of chromosomal pseudomolecules very …

Background DNA methylation is an important feature of plant epigenomes, involved in the
formation of heterochromatin and affecting gene expression. Extensive variation of DNA …

Understanding the diversity of human tissues is fundamental to disease and requires linking
genetic information, which is identical in most of an individual's cells, with epigenetic …

Abstract N6-methyldeoxyadenine (6mA) is a noncanonical DNA base modification present
at low levels in plant and animal genomes,,,, but its prevalence and association with …

Natural epigenetic variation provides a source for the generation of phenotypic diversity, but
to understand its contribution to such diversity, its interaction with genetic variation requires …

Background Unlike animals, plants can pause their life cycle as dormant seeds. In both
plants and animals, DNA methylation is involved in the regulation of gene expression and …
