Transgressive and parental dominant gene expression and cytosine methylation during seed development in Brassica napus hybrids [miRNA-seq]

To investigate the expression and methylation patterns of hybrid embryo development in Brassica napus, we performed pattern analysis on different developmental stages of parental and hybrid embryos Overall design: sRNA expression profiling using sRNA-seq data from parents and offspring at three developmental stages Grant ID: 31861133016 Grant title: Genome-wide patterns of heterotic vigour associated with allopolyploid chromosome collision Funding source: National Science Foundation project (NSFC) Grant ID: SN14/22-1 Grant title: Genome-wide patterns of heterotic vigour associated with allopolyploid chromosome collision Funding source: German Research Foundation (DFG)
