Fig 1. Intronic heterochromatin in the rice genome.

Fig 1

(A) Rice IRGSP-1.0 gene models (n = 37,866) that contain heterochromatic domain in their intron (n = 4,227). (B) DNA methylation levels in CG (mCG), CHG (mCHG) and CHH (mCHH) contexts for indicated genome features. (C) Metaplots of DNA methylation in CG (blue), CHG (light blue) and CHH (orange) context for indicated genome features. (D) (Top) Density of repeats, genes, and intron sequences in 1MB bins in rice chromosomes. (Bottom) Density of introns with heterochromatic domains as above. (E) Representative rice genome loci containing heterochromatic domains within introns. Tracks: Top to bottom; RNAseq (Reads per Million are indicated at top left), mCG ratio (0 to1), mCHG ratio (0 to1), mCHH ratio (0 to1), H3K9me2 (RPM; 0 to 1), TE annotation (blue), repeats (orange), gene model (purple), introns containing heterochromatic domain (black). Black arrows indicate the orientation of coding sequence.
