a Size distribution of chicken LMRs. b Principal component analysis of LMR methylation patterns from different tissues, strains, and age groups. c Age-related differential methylation of LMRs in the jejunum of broiler chickens. Representative methylation tracks for the PDIA4 gene in d14 (blue) and d28 (crimson) samples. The position of LMRs is indicated by purple horizontal bars. Note the pronounced differential methylation between d14 and d28 for the rightmost LMR.
