Abstract

DNA methylation is an important epigenetic modification. It can regulate the expression of many key genes without changing the primary structure of the genomic DNA, and plays a vital role in the growth and development of the organism. The genome-wide DNA methylation profile of the cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) line in soybean has not been reported so far. In this study, genome-wide comparative analysis of DNA methylation between soybean CMS line NJCMS5A and its maintainer NJCMS5B was conducted by whole-genome bisulfite sequencing. The results showed 3527 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) and 485 differentially methylated genes (DMGs), including 353 high-credible methylated genes, 56 methylated genes coding unknown protein and 76 novel methylated genes with no known function were identified. Among them, 25 DMRs were further validated that the genome-wide DNA methylation data were reliable through bisulfite treatment, and 9 DMRs were confirmed the relationship between DNA methylation and gene expression by qRT-PCR. Finally, 8 key DMGs possibly associated with soybean CMS were identified. Genome-wide DNA methylation profile of the soybean CMS line NJCMS5A and its maintainer NJCMS5B was obtained for the first time. Several specific DMGs which participated in pollen and flower development were further identified to be probably associated with soybean CMS. This study will contribute to further understanding of the molecular mechanism behind soybean CMS.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 April 2018.
All research outputs
#18,567,744
of 22,997,544 outputs
Outputs from BMC Genomics
#8,224
of 10,692 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#243,558
of 318,015 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Genomics
#174
of 225 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,997,544 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 10,692 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.7. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 318,015 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 225 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 14th percentile – i.e., 14% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
