Construction protocol: Genomic DNA was extracted with the AllPrep DNA/RNA Mini Kit (Qiagen). RRBS libraries were prepared as described in Auclair et al., Genome Biol 15:545 (2014). Briefly, we digested genomic DNA 5 hours with MspI (Thermo Scientific), followed by end-repair and A-tailing (Klenow fragment, Thermo Scientific) and ligation to methylated adapters (T4 DNA ligase, Thermo Scientific) in Tango 1X buffer. Fragments between 150 and 400 bp were excised from a 3% agarose 0.5X TBE gel with the MinElute kit (Qiagen) and bisulfite-converted with the EpiTect Bisulfite kit (Qiagen) using two consecutive rounds of conversion. Final RRBS libraries were amplified with 14-16 cycles of PCR. The libraries were purified using Ampure XP beads (Beckman Coulter).
