Chromatin accessibility and modification is a hallmark of regulatory DNA, the study of which
led to the discovery of cis-regulatory elements (CREs). Here, we characterize chromatin …

The identification and characterization of cis-regulatory DNA sequences and how they
function to coordinate responses to developmental and environmental cues is of paramount …

In eukaryotes, including plants, the genome is compacted into chromatin, which forms a
physical barrier for gene transcription. Therefore, mechanisms that alter chromatin structure …

The transcriptional regulatory structure of plant genomes remains poorly defined relative to
animals. It is unclear how many cis-regulatory elements exist, where these elements lie …

Post‐translational modification of histones and DNA methylation are important components
of chromatin‐level control of genome activity in eukaryotes. However, principles governing …

Genetic mapping studies on crops suggest that agronomic traits can be controlled by gene–
distal intergenic loci. Despite the biological importance and the potential agronomic utility of …

Packaging DNA into chromatin is pivotal for the regulation of genome activity in eukaryotes.
This chromatin-level control relies on a range of histone modifications and variants …

Transcriptional regulation underlies many of the growth and developmental processes that
shape plants as well as their adaptation to their environment. Key to transcriptional control …

Chromatin modifications and epigenetics may play important roles in many plant processes,
including developmental regulation, responses to environmental stimuli, and local …

Flowering plants have strikingly distinct genomes, although they contain a similar suite of
expressed genes. The diversity of genome structures and organization is largely due to …
