Genome-wide DNA methylation and transcription analysis reveal the potential epigenetic mechanism of heat stress response in the sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus

DNA methylation is an important epigenetic modification that regulates many biological processes. The sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus often suffers from heat stress that affects its growth and leads to significant economic losses. In this study, the mRNA expression patterns and DNA methylation c...
