Combinations of maternal-specific repressive epigenetic marks in the endosperm control seed dormancy

Combinations of maternal-specific repressive epigenetic marks in the endosperm control seed dormancy

Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2)-mediated trimethylation of histone H3 on lysine 27 (H3K27me3) and methylation of histone 3 on lysine 9 (H3K9me) are two repressive epigenetic modifications that are typically localized in distinct regions of the genome. For reasons unknown, however, they co-occur...
