The relationship between methylation level and gene expression. (a) The methylation level trend (y axis) of four different gene clusters (High, medium, low, and silent genes, from the bottom one-third to the top one-third and non-expressed according to Transcriptome Sequencing data) in gene-associated region(x axis) in WW. (b) The methylation level trend (y axis) of four different gene clusters in gene-associated region(x axis) in WS (c) Distribution of methylated and unmethylated gene expression levels in gene-body. The horizontal axis represents expression level, and the vertical axis represents the percentage of genes on a particular expression level. (d) Distribution of methylated and unmethylated gene expression levels in upstream2k. (e) Distribution of methylated and unmethylated gene expression levels in 100bp upstream of the TSS. (f) Distribution of methylated and unmethylated gene expression levels in downstream2k.
