Fig. 2: Methylation analysis of genomic features.

a Violin plots showing methylation levels of different genomic features in three different tissues. All differences between tissues are statistically significant (P = 2.2 × 10−16, Wilcoxon rank sum test), except the difference between lung and breast muscle at 3’-UTRs. b Violin plots showing methylation levels of different repeat classes in three different tissues. c Representative gene body methylation pattern. The methylation track shows DNA methylation levels (light blue) and sequencing coverage levels (red) for all CpGs of the chicken DNMT3B locus (chromosome 20) in lung. Sequencing coverages were cut off at >10. d Violin plots showing methylation ratios of 2 kb sliding windows. Representative somatic datasets are from chicken lung and mouse intestine.
