a, Clustering analysis of expression levels of reproduction-related genes (GO:0000003) in A. arenosa (Aar, A) and A.thaliana (Ler4, T) (Aar/Ath), F1, Allo733 (733), Allo738 (738) and A. suecica (Asu). b, Density plot of correlation coefficients between expression and CG methylation levels of the reproduction-related genes from clusters 1, 2 and 4 in the A subgenome. c, CG methylation near genic regions of SMC3, PSD5A and AFB3 and their mRNA expression patterns in Aar, F1, Allo733 (733), Allo738 (738) and Asu. Black arrows indicate the orientation of genes. SMC3, STRUCTURAL MAINTENANCE OF CHROMOSOMES3; PDS5A, PHYTOENE DESATURASE; AFB3, AUXIN SIGNALING F-BOX3. Scales indicate mRNA (0–20 and 0–100) and CG methylation density (0–1) levels. Different letters in mRNA (TPM) indicate statistical significance of P < 0.05 (ANOVA test, n = 3).
