A new version of this article is under construction!
RNA-directed DNA Methylation (RdDM) is a key epigenetic phenomenon within the plant kingdom, with connections to transposable element regulation, stress response, reproduction, and more. The current stub version of this entry could benefit from a significant expansion. Following an invitation from the PLOS Genetics Topic Pages initiative, we are preparing an expanded entry. For more detailed information about Topics Pages, see:

https://blogs.plos.org/biologue/2017/04/12/continuing-to-bridge-the-journal-wikipedia-gap-introducing-topic-pages-for-plos-genetics/

In the new version, we plan to address the underlying pathways and mechanisms of RdDM, the varied biological functions attributed to RdDM, and the evolutionary conservation of the phenomenon and contributing pathway elements.

Please contact us if you have any questions, objections, and/or suggestions about the proposed article.
