DNA methylation alterations on a set of transposable elements (TEs) and protein coding genes in the somatic cells (leaves) of rice ssp. japonica cv. Matsumae germinating seedlings treated with four heavy metals (S0 plants).

Note:aDetermined by BlastN at NCBI;bChanges in DNA methylation pattern is defined as: n/n: No changes in HpaII and MspI; n/-: No changes in HpaII, hypomethylation in MspI;CAmong 8 kinds of treatment, the frequency which can induce the alteration on DNA methylation;dAmong 18 sequences, the frequency of the specified treatment can induce the changes of DNA methylation.
