“…As one of the primary modes of transcriptional regulation, epigenetic modifications of the genome, which mainly include histone modifications in nucleosomes and DNA methylation modifications, change the structure of chromosomes or change the spatial structure of the modified DNA, resulting in gene silencing or overexpression. A number of reviews have summarized the functions of different epigenetic mechanisms in auxin signaling, transport, and metabolism (Yamamuro et al, 2016 ; Do et al, 2019 ; Mateo-Bonmati et al, 2019 ; Nguyen et al, 2020 ; Wojcikowska et al, 2020 ), two of which focused on epigenetic contributions to auxin biosynthesis. Mateo-Bonmati et al ( 2019 ) comprehensively described the relationships between epigenetic modifications and auxin homeostasis.…”
