Methylation analysis revealed salicylic acid affects pearl millet defense through external cytosine DNA demethylation
The cytosine DNA methylation and demethylation have a role in regulating plant responses to the environment by affecting the promoter regions of most plant defense-related genes through the CpG islands or the CCGG motifs. Salicylic acid, a defense and signaling plant hormone, is seen playing crucial...
