Performance of Mapping Approaches for Whole-Genome Bisulfite Sequencing Data in Crop Plants

DNA methylation is involved in many different biological processes in the development and well-being of crop plants such as transposon activation, heterosis, environment-dependent transcriptome plasticity, aging, and many diseases. Whole-genome bisulfite sequencing is an excellent technology for det...
