From: Epigenetic regulation of seed-specific gene expression by DNA methylation valleys in castor bean
Identification and characterization of DNA methylation valleys (DMVs) in the castor bean genome. A Example of DMV distribution along scaffold 29,955 of the castor bean genome. Blue, DNA methylation; red, DMVs; black, genes; gray, transposable elements. B Percentage of conserved DMVs that overlap with tissue-specific DMVs. C Genomic distribution of DMVs in different tissues. Promoter and down 2k indicate the upstream and downstream 2-kb regions relative to the gene body, respectively. D Percentage of expressed and non-expressed genes, genome-wide (all genes) and only within DMVs (DMV genes). E Density plot of Shannon entropy values for all genes and DMV genes. F Venn diagrams illustrating the overlap between DMVs and tissue-specific or seed-specific genes. G Gene ontology enrichment analysis of conserved DMV genes in different plant species (Arabidopsis, soybean, and castor bean). Several conserved DMV genes encoding transcription factors are listed below
