Deskripsi

Genome annotations are an invaluable resource, and their accuracy is critical to the research community. We demonstrate that epigenomic data can be leveraged to improve genome annotations. Using a set of histone modifications precisely distributed at the gene body or the transcription start site, we identified candidate mis-annotations in Zea mays
