Epigenetic reprogramming of H3K27me3 and DNA methylation during leaf-to-callus transition in peach.

ABSTRACT: Plant tissues are capable of developing unorganized cell masses termed calluses in response to the appropriate combination of auxin and cytokinin. Revealing the potential epigenetic mechanisms involved in callus development can improve our understanding of the regeneration process of plant cells, which will be beneficial for overcoming regeneration recalcitrance in peach. In this study, we report on single-base resolution mapping of DNA methylation and reprogramming of the pattern of trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 27 (H3K27me3) at the genome-wide level during the leaf-to-callus transition in peach. Overall, mCG and mCHH were predominant at the genome-wide level and mCG was predominant in genic regions. H3K27me3 deposition was mainly detected in the gene body and at the TSS site, an
