During their life cycle, plants are exposed to different environmental conditions that are often unfavorable. Their sessile condition has favored the acquisition of sophisticated molecular mechanisms that guarantee the plastic response to the different conditions faced during their development. Current advances indicate that changes in the functional state of chromatin by epigenetic modifications play important roles in the regulatory networks involved in plant responses to environmental cues. More specifically, several evidences in different plant species indicate that changes in the overall genomic DNA methylation promote tolerance to stressful environmental conditions, and also are associated with developmental programmed transition in r...
