    AbstractMethylation of cytosines in DNA is the most stable type of epigenetic modification that is established and maintained by different enzymes. In plants, DNA methylation is inherited from one generation to another leaving an epigenetic mark as a memory of previous state, which may include encounter with stress or pathogen. Advancement in the next generation sequencing technologies has enabled the profiling of methylation marks. Whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) has the potential to unravel the patterns of DNA methylation at single-base resolution. Though the sequencing technologies have evolved drastically, analysis of WGBS data still remains challenging. Here, we provide a methodology for performing WGBS data analysis along with critical steps for identification of methylation marks in plant genomes including legumes.
