Abstract:Plants have evolved sophisticated DNA repair mechanisms to cope with the deleterious effects of UV-induced DNA damage. Indeed, DNA repair pathways cooperate with epigenetic-related processes to efficiently maintain genome integrity. However, it remains to be deciphered how photodamages are recognized within different chromatin landscapes, especially in compacted genomic regions such as constitutive heterochromatin. We combined cytogenetics and epigenomics to identify that UV-C irradiation induces modulation of… Show more
