Popis: Studying how different plant groups deal with heavy metal exposure is crucial to improve our understanding of the diversity of molecular mechanisms involved in plant stress response. Here, we used RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and epigenotyping by sequencing (epiGBS) to assess gene expression and DNA methylation changes respectively in plants from four populations of the metallophyte moss Scopelophila cataractae treated with Cd or Cu in the laboratory. We built RNA-seq and epiGBS sequencing libraries from control and treated samples from each population and sequenced them using Illumina HiSeq 3000 (PE-150 bp) and Illumina HiSeq X-Ten System (PE-150 bp) respectively. For the RNA-seq data, we performed a read quality filter, mapped the reads to the de novo transcriptome created with Trinity, and estimated transcript abundance for each sample. For the epiGBS data, we used a custom pipeline (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7040291) to map the reads to a de novo reference genome and performed strand-specific nucleotide (single nucleotide polymorphisms, SNPs) and methylation (single cytosine methylation polymorphisms, SMPs) variant calling. We filtered out SNPs and SMPs with low coverage within (positions with
