Validation of epigenotyping procedure. a Distribution of accuracy for samples tested using different combinations of bin size and error around the parental methylation value. Each data point is the mean accuracy of 25 simulations for a given sample, bin size, and error value. Dark bar indicates median, box denotes first and third quartile, and whiskers are 1.5 times the interquartile range. b Epigenotype maps for chromosome 1 of three met1 epiRIL samples. Blue denotes wild type (WT)-derived region of chromosome and yellow denotes met1-derived region. Maps for chromosomes 2-5 are in Additional file 2: Figure S7 c Comparison of genetic maps using SNPs created by Greaves et al. [33] to epigenotype maps for chromosome 1. Blue denotes C24 homozygous region, yellow denotes Ler homozygous region, and green denotes heterozygous region as predicted by each method. Gray indicates regions where genotype could not be determined. Maps for chromosomes 2–5 are in Additional file 2: Figure S8
