24-nt siRNAs were altered as a response to CG methylation loss. a siRNA profile of AzaD treated and CK rice. 21–22-nt siRNAs were up-regulated while 24-nt siRNA were down-regulated after AzaD treatment. b Correlation between CHH methylation level and 24-nt siRNA abundance in DMRs. c 24-nt siRNA RPKM in different DMRs. The 24-nt siRNA count was associated with CHH methylation. d 24-nt siRNA RPKM changes of close and far TEs from different TE families. The distribution pattern was highly similar to that of CHH methylation in TEs from different families. e CG methylation level changes in CHH hyper DMRs, CHH hypo DMRs, and random regions. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 by Student’s t-test
