Figure 1. DNA methylation status and chromosomal distribution in different rice cultivars.

Figure 1

(a) The relative fraction of methylcytosines (mCs) identified in each sequence context (CG, CHG and CHH) in three rice cultivars, IR64, N22 and Pokkali. Blue, CG; maroon, CHG; green, CHH. (b) Box-plot showing distribution of DNA methylation level in each sequence context in different cultivars. Significant differences (Fisher’s exact text) are marked with asterisks (***P < 1 × 10−10). (c) The density of mCs (identified in each sequence context on two DNA strands), genes and transposable elements (TEs) throughout chromosome 1 (bin size 100 kb). N22, Nagina 22; PK, Pokkali.
