DNA methylation distribution in goat gene region. The DNA methylation profile in gene regions for hypothalamus and ovary shown as the reads aligned with unique loci in the genome. Gene regions including 2 kb upstream of the CDS start, the gene body from CDS start to CDS end, and 2 kb downstream of the CDS end. In the upstream and downstream 2 kb regions, the regions were split into 20 non-overlapping windows, and the average alignment depth was calculated for each window. In the gene body, each gene was split into 40 equal windows, and the average alignment depth was calculated for each window. The y-axis is the average of the normalized depth for each window
