DNA methylation coverage in two tissues of the Pacific Oyster

This work aims at characterizing and comparing DNA methylation in two tissues in the Pacific oyster using the methylKit R package. Bisulfite sequencing was used to examine genome-wide DNA methylation in the oyster gonad tissue and MBD-Seq was used to examine methylation in the gill tissue. The R scr...

Description
Summary:This work aims at characterizing and comparing DNA methylation in two tissues in the Pacific oyster using the methylKit R package. Bisulfite sequencing was used to examine genome-wide DNA methylation in the oyster gonad tissue and MBD-Seq was used to examine methylation in the gill tissue. The R script used for these analyses has been provided along with some visualization outputs comparing gill and gonad tissue from the Pacific oyster.
