Genome-wide methylation dynamics during seed development and germination. a Genome-wide weighted methylation levels of developing seeds (Ws-0 background), germinating seeds (Col-0), leaf [28], flower bud [26], microspore [17], sperm [19], vegetative nucleus [19], hand dissected embryo and endosperm (mid-torpedo to early-maturation stage; 7–9 DAP) [22], and columella root cap [29] in each sequence context. (Top) mCG, (middle) mCHG, (bottom) mCHH. b Heatmaps showing methylation levels of developing seeds and germinating seeds for each sequence context. (Top) mCG, (middle) mCHG, (bottom) mCHH
