DNA hydroxymethylation profiling of the somatotropic axis in Nile tilapia
Somatic growth is one of the most important traits in aquaculture and epigenetic mechanisms are likely involved in its regulation. DNA hydroxymethylation has been identified as a stable epigenetic modification with tissue-specific profiles. To better understand the impact of DNA hydroxymethylation within the somatotropic axis, we profiled and compared the liver, muscle and pituitary DNA hydroxymethylome of five full-sib male Nile tilapias.
