Alterations of histone PTM patterns at generation-biased genes during the two generations of the life cycle. a Patterns of histone PTMs over 10Â kb regions surrounding the TSSs of sporophyte-biased (upper panel) and gametophyte-biased (lower panel) genes during the sporophyte (left) and gametophyte (middle) generations. The heatmaps on the right show transcript abundance during the two generations and log2 fold change between generations. b Circos plots comparing the chromatin states (combinations of histone PTMs) at the transcription start sites (TSS) of sporophyte-biased (left) and gametophyte-biased (left) genes in chromatin from the sporophyte (mauve) and gametophyte (green) generations of the life cycle. Colours correspond to chromatin states one to 16 as indicated in the key. c Plots of fold change against transcript abundance (TPM) for sporophyte- and gametophyte-biased genes during the two generations (left panel) along with ranked plots of fold change (right panel). Colour coding corresponds to chromatin states
