| Research Abstract |
The aim of this research is to elucidate of the epigenetic status of Brassica rapa at the whole genome level. We examined the DNA methylation and histone modification status at the whole genome level. Next, we assessed the change of epigenetic modification after vernalization or infection by pathogens. We found accumulation of H3K27me3 level at the FLC locus and repression of its expression after vernalization.
