Study uncovers role of DNA methylation in ocean microbial communities

Scheme of meta-epigenome analysis of ocean surface samples. A schematic overview of meta-epigenomics. Meta-epigenomics using genome-centric metagenomics from the approach of binning short-read and long-read assemblies, followed by the identification of epigenetic signals of genomes from long-read mapping.
