“…This study analyzed various mutants, and studied the distribution, context and periodicity of genome methylation including at rDNA genes and telomeres, which were inaccessible to previous methods. Although single‐base‐pair resolution epigenomes have been obtained for plant species as diverse as melon (Martin et al ., ), rice (Li et al ., ), tomato (Zhong et al ., ), wheat (Jiao et al ., ), spruce (Ausin et al ., ) and apple (Daccord et al ., ), most work on dissecting epigenomic mechanisms has been done in the model plant A. thaliana (Liu, ; Seymour and Becker, ; Springer and Schmitz, ).…”
