TABLE 6.
An overview of the number of filtered DMCs and range of differences in methylation level identified in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) milt samples from different experiments (Exp A to E). Both hypo- and hyper-methylated Cs percentages refer to differences in test samples compared to control. For instance, in Exp A, 49 percent of mutual Cs in test individuals were less methylated compared to the same Cs in the control group.
Exp A | Exp B | Exp C | Exp D | Exp E | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Total number of filtered DMCs (range of methylation difference in percentage) | 314 (−47 to 56) | 2501 (−50 to 56) | 1679 (−40 to 40) | 3483 (−64 to 59) | 226 (−40 to 41) |
Percentage of hypomethylated Cs | 49.0 | 69.0 | 41.8 | 34.7 | 59.2 |
Percentage of hypermethylated Cs | 51.0 | 31.0 | 58.2 | 65.3 | 40.8 |
