>99.9% of the ∼8200 sites of H3K9me2 enrichment detected in fer-1 adult hermaphrodites are also detected in fer-1;him-8 adult hermaphrodites (see text). A large proportion of these sites are either elevated or reduced in fer-1;him-8 compared with fer-1 controls: ∼48% of sites are enriched at a significantly greater level in fer-1;him-8, and ∼23% of sites are enriched at a significantly reduced level in fer-1;him-8. Enrichment at most of the remaining ∼2400 sites (not listed here) is detected at an equivalent level in fer-1 and fer-1;him-8. H3K9me2, histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation

^aLess than 0.1% of the sites enriched for H3K9me2 in fer-1 lack that enrichment in fer-1;him-8.

^bA number of de novo sites of H3K9me2 enrichment are detected in fer-1;him-8.
