Project Title
- Plants regenerated from tissue culture contain stable epigenome changes in rice
The Background of This Project
- The rice genome is DNA methylated in all three cytosine contexts (CG, CHG, CHH, where H=A, T,or C), with high levels of CG and CHG methylation and very low levels of CHH methylation (Feng et al., 2010; Zemach et al., 2010). Whole genome bisulfite sequencing (BS-seq) enables measurement of DNA methylation at single nucleotide resolution and thus allows one to distinguish DNA methylation in different cytosine contexts (Cokus et al., 2008; Lister et al., 2008).
