a DNA methylation levels in percent at individual cytosines located in sex chromosomes across all or within each individual sequence context (CG, CHG, CHH) for each tissue type used in this study shown as violin plots. The horizontal black bars correspond to the means (see Additional file 1: Table S9). Female/male gametophytes and gametes only contain the X/Y chromosome. Sporophytes contain both, X and Y, sex chromosomes. b Difference in the average DNA methylation level between the individual sex chromosomes and the autosomes for each sequence and genomic feature context. Fields marked with an asterisk depict comparisons that were statistically significant (two-sided t-test, adjusted for multiple testing, FDR < 0.05). Gray fields depict cases in which the given genomic feature is not present on the sex chromosome. US/DS upstream/downstream of a gene, UTR untranslated region, snRNA small nucleolar RNA, rRNA ribosomal RNA, sat satellite repeat, telo. sat telomeric satellite repeats, simple simple repeats, ukn. unknown/unclassified repeats, SINE short interspersed nuclear elements, LINE long interspersed nuclear elements, RC rolling circle transposon, LTR-TE retrotransposon with long terminal repeats, DNA-TE DNA transposon, uncl. not classified into a subfamily. *Note that for the “female gametes,” we sampled archegonia, which are entire gametangia that harbor the egg cells
