Fig. 8

Visualization and BSP (Bisulfite-Sequencing PCR) analysis of selected putative spaceflight-induced heritable DMRs and expression levels of a LHCA1, b TGA4, and c TGA1 in the offspring of spaceflight and ground control plants. Visualization of methylation data was performed, using the Integrated Genome Viewer (IGV) (http://software.roadinstitute.org/software/igv). The inherited methylation level of CpG islands was verified by using BSP analysis. The error bar is the standard deviation. An asterisk * indicates a statistically significant difference between the spaceflight and control samples using Student’s two-tailed t-test (p < 0.05).
