Stochastic changes in DNA methylation (ie, spontaneous epimutations) contribute to
methylome diversity in plants. Here, we describe AlphaBeta, a computational method for …

Abstract DNA N6-adenine methylation (6mA) has recently gained importance as an
epigenetic modification in eukaryotes. Its function in lineages with high levels, such as early …

Decades of investigation on DNA methylation have led to deeper insights into its metabolic
mechanisms and biological functions. This understanding was fueled by the recent …

Abstract Background The Fusarium solani species complex (FSSC) comprises fungal
pathogens responsible for mortality in a diverse range of animals and plants, but their …

To successfully infect plants and trigger disease, fungal plant pathogens use various
strategies that are dependent on characteristics of their biology and genomes. Although …

As a sessile organism, plants have evolved a complex and sophisticated immune system to
defend against various pathogenic microbes effectively. However, microbes have also …

Epigenetic information affects gene function by interacting with chromatin, while not
changing the DNA sequence itself. However, it has become apparent that the interactions …

DNA methylation is treated as an important epigenetic mark in various biological activities. In
the past, a large number of articles focused on 5 mC while lacking attention to N6 …

Both animals and plants have evolved a robust immune system to surveil and defeat
invading pathogenic microbes. Evasion of host immune surveillance is the key for …

Two DNA methyltransferase (DNMTase) genes from Cryphonectria parasitica have been
previously identified as CpDmt1 and CpDmt2, which are orthologous to rid and dim-2 of …
