Methylation Profile of dry seed from Arabidopsis ddcc mutant
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The role of on-CG methylation in seed development and dormancy remains unknown. There are four genes in charge of non-CG methylation in Arabidopsis: drm1, drm2, cmt2 and cmt3. The majority of non-CG methylation in vegetative tissues, leaf, is gone in homozygous ddcc mutant line (Hume et al., 2014). To uncover the possible role of non-CG DNA methylation in seed development and dormancy, we characterized the methylome of ddcc mutant in Arabidopsis dry seed using Illumina sequencing. Meanwhile, vegetative tissue, leaves from 3 week plant with ddcc mutant and from wild type, and dry seed from wild type plant were used as control. Illumina sequencing of bisulfite-converted genomic DNA from dry seed and 3-week-plant leaves of ddcc mutant and wild type.
