DNA methylation status is associated with the formation of heterosis in Larix kaempferi intraspecific hybrids
Heterosis is prevalent in Larix kaempferi, but the molecular mechanism underlying heterosis in this species has not yet been elucidated. We have explored the relationships among heterosis and DNA sequence variati...

Gene expression profiles of two intraspecific Larix lines and their reciprocal hybrids
Heterosis has been widely explored in Larix breeding for more than a century, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain elusive. In the present study, the genome-wide transcript profiles from...

Open AccessDNA Methylation in Genomes of Several Annual Herbaceous and Woody Perennial Plants of Varying Ploidy as Detected by MSAP
Polyploidization is known to accompany altered DNA methylation in higher plants, which plays an important role in gene expression regulation and maintaining genome stability. While the characteristics of DNA m...

Construction of a DNA library from chromosome 4 of rice (Oryza sativa) by microdissection
A simple method to create a chromosome-specific DNA library of rice, including microdissection, amplification, characterization and cloning, is described. Rice chromosome 4 from a metaphase cell has been isola...
