Abstract

Abstract:

DNA methylation is an important epigenetic modification that can effectively regulate genome stability. In order to understand the impact of DNA methylation on plant growth and development, this article summarizes plant DNA methylation patterns, concludes the physiological functions of plant DNA methylation, and reviews the research methods of DNA methylation. At last, this article sums up the problems in the study of plant DNA methylation and points out the research directions in the future, providing a theoretical basis for subsequent plant genome research.

Key words: Plants, DNA methylation, Epigenetic, Modification, Growth and Development, Adversity Stress, genome, stability
