From: Multi-omics provide insights into the regulation of DNA methylation in pear fruit metabolism
The decreased expression of demethylase genes is consistent with the increased DNA methylation during pear flesh development. a Expression patterns of demethylase genes in the fruit flesh at all 11 stages (S1ꟷS11). Z-score standardized values of each DEG across all 11 stages were used for clustering analysis. The color bar indicates the increasing expression levels of gene from blue to red. b Correlation analysis of demethylase genes with C (left panel) and CHH (right panel) methylations. The dotted line with red color represents the false discovery rate at 0.05. c A diagram showing the establishment, maintenance, and elimination of DNA methylation in fruit flesh
