Project description:The objective of the study is to profile histone H3 lysine nine di-methylation (H3K9me2) in Arabidopsis thaliana and to correlate it with DNA methylation.
Project description:Ecotype-specific differences in genome methylation were assayed in Arabidopsis Col and Ler variations using genomic tiling microarrays. Comparative genome hybridization was also performed so that the contribution of ecotype-specific amplifications and deletions could be estimated and integrated into the analysis of differential DNA methylation. Keywords: methylation analysis and comparative genome hybridization
