| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Focusing on epigenetic changes in gene expression, which are maintained through cell division without alterations in the DNA sequence, their dynamics in different layers including within gene, between alleles, and between cells and/or tissues were analyzed. In particular, transgene methylation that is induced during the growth of plants was characterized in terms of its relationship with changes in phenotypes, its stability across generations, and its changes via allelic interactions. In addition, changes in the insertional preference of a plant transposable element into chromosomal regions during evolution and the tissue specificity of its expression were explored.
