5.3 H3K27me3

Caste differentiation is associated with variation in POEs on H3K27me3 enrichment. Allele-specific enrichment at H3K27me3 peaks were assessed in F2 worker-destined larvae (WL) and queen-destined larvae (QL) at 192hpf collected from a reciprocal cross between different stocks of European honey bees. The x-axis represents, for each peak, the proportion of lineage A reads in bees with a lineage B mother and lineage A father. The y-axis represents, for each peak, the proportion of lineage A reads in bees with a lineage A mother and lineage B father (p2). Each color represents a peak which is significantly biased at all tested SNP positions. Significance was determined using the overlap between two statistical tests: a generalized linear interactive mixed model (GLIMMIX), and a Storer-Kim binomial exact test along with previously established thresholds of p1<0.4 and p2>0.6 for maternal bias, p1>0.6 and p2<0.4 for paternal bias, p1<0.4 and p2<0.4 for lineage B bias and p1>0.6 and p2>0.6 for lineage A bias.

5.4 H3K27ac

Caste differentiation is associated with variation in POEs on H3K27ac enrichment. Allele-specific enrichment at H3K27ac peaks were assessed in F2 worker-destined larvae (WL) and queen-destined larvae (QL) at 192hpf collected from a reciprocal cross between different stocks of European honey bees. The x-axis represents, for each peak, the proportion of lineage A reads in bees with a lineage B mother and lineage A father. The y-axis represents, for each peak, the proportion of lineage A reads in bees with a lineage A mother and lineage B father (p2).

5.6 Combined results

Differences in allelic enrichment of HPTMs across promoters (P) and gene bodies (GB) between queen-destined larvae (QL) and worker-destined larvae (WL) at 192hpf in block 1. The log2 count of peaks showing significant maternal (mat), lineage A, lineage B, or paternal (pat) allele-specific enrichment across (a-c) promoters and (d-f) gene bodies at all tested SNP positions. In each panel, p-values for Chi-squared tests of independence for comparisons between the castes are indicated (NS = not significant, *p<0.01, **p<0.001, ***p<0.001). Significance of allele-biased HPTM enrichment was determined using the overlap between two statistical tests: a general linear mixed model (GLIMMIX), and a Storer-Kim binomial exact test along with previously established thresholds of p1<0.4 and p2>0.6 for maternal bias, p1>0.6 and p2<0.4 for paternal bias, p1<0.4 and p2<0.4 for lineage B bias and p1>0.6 and p2>0.6 for lineage A bias.
