TET-mediated epimutagenesis of the Arabidopsis thaliana methylome
In plants, variation in DNA methylation can influence agronomically important traits. Here the authors show that expression of a human Ten-eleven translocation enzyme can generate heritable hypomethylation alleles in Arabidopsis, providing a novel method to manipulate DNA methylation for breeding an...
