Abiotic stress and induced DNA hypomethylation cause interphase chromatin structural changes in rice rDNA loci

Global climate change, i.e. higher and more variable temperatures, and a gain in soil salinity are increasing plant stress with direct consequences on crop yield and quality levels. Rice productivity is strongly affected by abiotic stress conditions. The regulation of chromatin structure in response...
