Methylation level distribution of parental sequences of MULE-derived putative genes and randomly selected non-TE genic regions across the O. sativa ssp. japonica genome. A density distribution of the methylation levels of parental sequences of MULE-derived putative genes (green) and that of randomly selected non-TE genic regions across the O. sativa ssp. japonica genome (red) in three cytosine contexts. The figure shows that the parental sequences of MULE-derived putative genes have lower methylation levels compared with non-TE genic regions
