Methylation, transcription, and rearrangements of transposable elements in synthetic allopolyploids

Open access

Abstract

Transposable elements (TEs) constitute over 90% of the wheat genome. It was suggested that "genomic stress" such as hybridity or polyploidy might activate transposons. Intensive investigations of various polyploid systems revealed that allopolyploidization event is associated with widespread changes in genome structure, methylation, and expression involving low- and high-copy, coding and noncoding sequences. Massive demethylation and transcriptional activation of TEs were also observed in newly formed allopolyploids. Massive proliferation, however, was reported for very limited number of TE families in various polyploidy systems. The aim of this review is to summarize the accumulated data on genetic and epigenetic dynamics of TEs, particularly in synthetic allotetraploid and allohexaploid wheat species. In addition, the underlying mechanisms and the potential biological significance of TE dynamics following allopolyploidization are discussed.

  • Global DNA methylation is the most evaluated epigenetic somaclonal variation; in plants it is at higher levels than in other eukaryotes and is correlated with expression of different genes and changes in mobility of transposable elements.

    “The most evaluated epigenetic somaclonal variation is global DNA methylation, which, in plants, is at higher levels compared with other eukaryotes, and is correlated with the expression of different genes, and changes in the mobility of the numerous transposable elements presented in plant genomes [99,101,102,103,104,105,106,107,108,109].”

    From Somaclonal Variation—Advantage or Disadvantage in Micropropagation of the Medicinal Plants (2023) · cites this paper as [105]

    The Introduction states that methylation of transposable elements is associated with their activation or silencing, and that transposable elements can affect nearby gene expression. It does not say that global DNA methylation is the most evaluated epigenetic somaclonal variation or that methylation levels in plants exceed those in other eukaryotes. Its comparison is between transposable elements and host genes within plants, not between plants and other eukaryotes. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
