  bibo_abstract:
  - DNA methylation is an ancient process found in all domains of life. Although the
    enzymes that mediate methylation have remained highly conserved, DNA methylation
    has been adapted for a variety of uses throughout evolution, including defense
    against transposable elements and control of gene expression. Defects in DNA methylation
    are linked to human diseases, including cancer. Methylation has been lost several
    times in the course of animal and fungal evolution, thus limiting the opportunity
    for study in common model organisms. In the past decade, plants have emerged as
    a premier model system for genetic dissection of DNA methylation. A recent combination
    of plant genetics with powerful genomic approaches has led to a number of exciting
    discoveries and promises many more.@eng
