Large-scale reactivation of TEs did not follow severe reductions of mCG in O. fasciatus ovaries. a CG methylation levels for the top ten most abundant TEs of ≥ 500 bp in the O. fasciatus genome. The dashed lines correspond to the intergenic mCG level of O. fasciatus ds-dnmt1-1 and control. b Levels of mCG across the bodies and 1 kb flanking sequence of TEs for a single representative of DNA transposons (Chapaev), LTR retrotransposons (Gypsy), and non-LTR retrotransposons (Jockey). c Expression quantified as RPKM for the top ten most abundant TEs of ≥ 500 bp. The subset presents the RPKM distribution when all TEs are considered within ds-dnmt1-1 and control ovaries
