Mild Photoperiod and Temperature Fluctuations Elicit Tissue‐Specific DNA Methylation Changes in Arabidopsis

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Summary statement Mild seasonal changes reshape DNA methylation in Arabidopsis . Shortened days markedly alter CG methylation at TEs in leaves, while lower temperature is associated with coordinated changes in genic CG methylation across leaves and embryos. Embryo demethylation hotspots are environmentally sensitive.
