Extended Data Fig. 6: DNA methylation is not restored in the progeny of the grafted plants.
From: Long-distance transport of siRNAs with functional roles in pollen development
a and b, Metagene plots show global DNA methylation levels of genes (a) and TEs (b) in the progeny of grafted plants. Leaves of 10-day-old seedlings were analyzed. c, Boxplots show DNA methylation levels of all PMsiRNA loci (n = 169) in the leaves of the grafted progeny. Means of two biological replicates were computed. Center lines show the medians; box limits indicate the 25th and 75th percentiles; whiskers extend 1.5 times the interquartile range from the 25th and 75th percentiles. The asterisks mark statistically significant differences (***, P < 0.001, ns, not significant). Statistical significance of differences was determined using the pairwise Mann–Whitney test, two-sided; the exact P values are provided in the Source Data file.
