The focus of this study is to profile changes in DNA methylation and small RNA expression occurring with increased age in almond breeding germplasm to identify possible biomarkers of age that can be used to assess the potential of individuals to develop aging-related disorders. To profile DNA methylation in almond germplasm, 70 methylomes were generated from almond individuals representing three age cohorts (11, 7, and 2 years old) using an enzymatic methyl-seq approach followed by analysis to call differentially methylated regions (DMRs) within these cohorts. Small RNA (sRNA) expression was profiled in three breeding selections, each from two age cohorts (1 and 6 years old), using sRNA-Seq followed by differential expression analysis. Weighted chromosome-level methylation analysis reveals hypermethylation in 11-year-old almond breeding selections when compared to 2-year-old selections in the CG and CHH contexts. Seventeen consensus DMRs were identified in all age contrasts. sRNA expression differed significantly between the two age cohorts tested, with significantly decreased expression in sRNAs in the 6-year-old selections compared to the 1-year-old. Almond shows a pattern of hypermethylation and decreased sRNA expression with increased age. Identified DMRs and differentially expressed sRNAs could function as putative biomarkers of age following validation in additional age groups. • Aging is poorly understood in trees regardless of its implications for human society • Tree aging has implications for conservation, recovery, breeding, and production • Almond can serve as a model to understand tree aging since it exhibits an aging disorder • Differential DNA methylation is found to be associated with aging in the almond genome • DNA-methylation and small RNA expression may be used as aging biomarkers in almond [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
