During plant tissue cultures the changes affecting regenerants have a broad range of genetic and epigenetic implications. These changes can be seen at the DNA methylation and sequence variation levels. In light of the latest studies, DNA methylation change plays an essential role in determining doubled haploid (DH) regenerants. The present study focuses on exploring the relationship between DNA methylation in CG and CHG contexts, and sequence variation, mediated by microelements (CuSO 4  and AgNO 3 ) supplemented during barley anther incubation on induction medium. To estimate such a relationship, a mediation analysis was used based on the results previously obtained through metAFLP method. Here, an interaction was observed between DNA demethylation in the context of CG and the time of culture. It was also noted that the reduction in DNA methylation was associated with a total decrease in the amount of Cu and Ag ions in the induction medium. Moreover, the total increase in Cu and Ag ions increased sequence variation. The importance of the time of tissue culture in the light of the observed changes resulted from the grouping of regenerants obtained after incubation on the induction medium for 28 days. The present study demonstrated that under a relatively short time of tissue culture (28 days), the multiplication of the Cu 2+  and Ag +  ion concentrations (‘Cu*Ag’) acts as a mediator of demethylation in CG context. Change (increase) in the demethylation in CG sequence results in the decrease of ‘Cu*Ag’, and that change induces sequence variation equal to the value of the indirect effect. Thus, Cu and Ag ions mediate sequence variation. It seems that the observed changes at the level of methylation and DNA sequence may accompany the transition from direct to indirect embryogenesis
