Fig. 3: mop1, particularly in females, tends to introduce new crossover (CO) sites in regions with higher genetic diversity.

From: mop1 affects maize recombination landscapes by modulating methylation of MITEs near genes in open chromatin

Fig. 3: mop1, particularly in females, tends to introduce new crossover (CO) sites in regions with higher genetic diversity.

a Average SNP density within CO intervals. Boxes represent the interquartile range (IQR) between the first (Q1) and third (Q3) quartiles, with the horizontal line inside each box indicating the median (Q2). Whiskers extend to the smallest and largest data points within 1.5 × IQR. Statistical analysis was performed using a two-tailed Kruskal-Wallis test, followed by Dunn’s post hoc test with Bonferroni correction. *, P < 0.05; ns, not significant. b Distribution of SNP density within 2 kb regions of CO midpoints. c Relationship between CO rates and SNP density across the whole genome and within the 2 kb flanking regions of genes containing TEs. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
