Association of DNA methylation between pairs of gene features as measured by odds ratio. A gene feature was considered methylated if DNA methylation > 90% and unmethylated if DNA methylation < 10%. The odds ratio (OR) indicates the pairwise association between the methylation states of the gene features of interest, including gene body (all exons and introns), promoter, first exon, first intron, rest of exons and rest of introns in muscle and testis. The odds ratio is represented as log₂-transformed values, and the bars indicate the 99.9% confidence intervals based on the Wald approximation. For the associations of gene feature A versus gene feature A, values were set to maximum and confidence intervals are not applicable
