doi:10.13560/j.cnki.biotech.bull.1985.2016.04.002

Abstract

Abstract: DNA methylation is one of the most important modification of eukaryotic genomes. This article reviews the patterns，establishment and maintaining mechanisms of plant DNA methylation，while focusing on the explanation of affecting mechanism of plant DNA methylation on gene expression and regulation. This article summarizes the effects on gene expression caused by the changes of DNA methylation in plant under adversity stress，and the correlation between plant DNA methylation in the whole genome and gene expression by high-throughput sequencing technologies.

Key words: plant, DNA methylation, gene expression, stress environment
