A lexicon of DNA modifications: their roles in embryo development and the germline [PDF]
5-methylcytosine (5mC) on CpG dinucleotides has been viewed as the major epigenetic modification in eukaryotes for a long time. Apart from 5mC, additional DNA modifications have been discovered in eukaryotic genomes.

Mapping epigenetic modifications by sequencing technologies [PDF]
The “epigenetics” concept was first described in 1942. Thus far, chemical modifications on histones, DNA, and RNA have emerged as three important building blocks of epigenetic modifications. Many epigenetic modifications have been intensively studied and
