Plants offer a habitat for a range of interactions to occur among different stress factors.
Epigenetics has become the most promising functional genomics tool, with huge potential …

Recent developments have revolutionized the study of biomolecules. Among them are
molecular markers, amplification and sequencing of nucleic acids. The latter is classified into …

DNA modifications are used to regulate gene expression and defend against invading
genetic elements. In eukaryotes, modifications predominantly involve C5-methylcytosine …

Fig trees (Ficus carica L.) are commonly grown in the Mediterranean area, where salinity is
an increasing problem in coastal areas. Young, fruiting plants of cv. Dottato were subjected …

DNA methylation constitutes one of the pillars of epigenetics, relying on covalent bonds for
addition and/or removal of chemically distinct marks within the major groove of the double …

Our era has witnessed tremendous technique advances and mechanically epigenetic
improvement in plant epigenetics, mainly including histone post-translational modifications …

DNA methylation is treated as an important epigenetic mark in various biological activities. In
the past, a large number of articles focused on 5 mC while lacking attention to N6 …

Much is known about the generation, removal, and roles of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) in
eukaryote DNA, and there is a growing body of evidence regarding N6-methyladenine, but …

Epigenetic modifications alter the gene activity and function by causing change in the
chromosomal architecture through DNA methylation/demethylation, or histone modifications …

Main conclusion The present review summarizes recent advances in the understanding of
6mA in DNA as an emergent epigenetic mark with distinctive characteristics, discusses its …
