Fig. 1

Transgenerational stability of DNA methylation. a Experimental set up of MA lines used. Filled circles indicate WGBS available. b Heatmap showing methylation level of methylated regions in the genome and identified epiallele loci (inset) identified in line 12 (n = 19), line 69 (n = 37), or both lines (n = 4). Each column is a region and each row is a sample. Darkness of color indicates methylation level. c Distribution of number of novel spontaneous epialleles per epilocus. d Distribution of underlying genomic characteristics for all methylated regions (white), epialleles in line 12 (red), and epialleles in line 69 (blue). Abbreviations: TE transposable element, IGR intergenic region, Pro promoter, UTR untranslated region, CDS coding sequence, ncRNA non-coding RNA
