Correlation between DNA methylation and gene expression levels during pear domestication and improvement. a Relationships between CG and CHG methylation levels and expression levels for all genes in the 2-kb upstream, gene body, and 2-kb downstream regions. The genes were divided into four groups (low, mid-low, mid-high, and high) based on expression level. b, c Distribution of Pearson correlation coefficients between gene expression levels in the 2-kb upstream, gene body, and 2-kb downstream regions and methylation levels of the DMRs in the CG and CHG contexts during pear domestication (b) and improvement (c)
