Extrachromosomal circular DNA and structural variants highlight genome instability in Arabidopsis epigenetic mutants

Abstract Abundant extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) is associated with transposable element (TE) activity. However, how the eccDNA compartment is controlled by epigenetic regulations and what is its impact on the genome is understudied. Here, using long reads, we sequence both the eccDNA compar...
