Figure 1 Medrano et al (2026): Box-plots showing variation in average genome-wide DNA cytosine methylation (%) between ramets from the three study populations assigned to each of the three levels of herbivory treatment (control, insect and artificial herbivory). Each dot represents a ramet (N = 18, 27, and 18 for Spain, Italy and Poland, respectively). Lower and upper box boundaries are the 25th and 75th percentiles, respectively, line inside box the median, lower and upper error lines the 10th and 90th percentiles. Differences between the two herbivory levels and control undamaged plants were only statistically significant in CHH context
