Figure 2From: Tissue culture-induced transpositional activity of mPing is correlated with cytosine methylation in riceSummary of the tissue culture-induced mPing activity and alteration in cytosine methylation in the three rice ssp. indica cultivars. (a) mPing activity as being reflected by the frequencies of excision and insertion in each genotype; (b) the four types of alteration in cytosine methylation at the CCGG sites of random genomic loci assessed by MSAP; (c) The four types of alteration in cytosine methylation at the CCGG sites of the 5' immobile mPing-flanking regions assessed by TMD; (d) The four types of alteration in cytosine methylation at the CCGG sites of the 3' immobile mPing-flanking regions assessed by TMD. mPing excisions and insertions, as well as the four types of methylation alteration (CG hypo-, CG hyper-, CHG hypo- and CHG hypermethylation) are indicated at bottom of the figure.Back to article page
