Fig. 3: CHH hypermethylation occurs mainly on TEs.

a Numbers of DMRs between vegetative SAM and mature leaf (Veg vs. Leaf) and between vegetative SAM and reproductive SAM (Veg vs. Rep). Green, blue, and red indicate the portion of DMRs that are hypermethylated in mature leaf, vegetative SAM, and reproductive SAM, respectively. b, c Genomic features b and TE families c overlapping with CHH DMRs that are hypermethylated in reproductive SAM compared with vegetative SAM (left, SAM_Rep hyper), hypermethylated in vegetative SAM compared with mature leaf (middle, Leaf_hypo), and hypermethylated in mature leaf compared with vegetative SAM (right, Leaf_hyper). d Venn diagram showing the overlap of CHH DMRs between Rep-hyperDMRs and Leaf-hypoDMRs. e Heat map showing the methylation level for each context in the vegetative SAM (Veg) and reproductive SAM (Rep) for Rep-hyperDMRs.
