  1. a: The gene are numbered consecutively to Table 1 to simplify presentation in the text and Figure 3. The response type is based on previous publications.
  2. b: According to Affymetrix Gene Chip® wheat genome array description. The probesetIDs are presented in decreasing order of differential expression (most over-expressed to most down-regulated). The last 4 entries in Table 2A are more expressed in sensitive cultivars. The last entry in Table 2B is a down-regulated gene in the tolerant cultivars. For more details on gene expression level, see Additional file 2. Genes subsequently tested by qRT PCR are in bold.
  3. c: Annotations were made based on Affymetrix gene annotation complemented with BLAST results using the public representative ID provided with the Affymetrix Gene Chip® wheat genome array.
  4. d: The fold change represents the mean ratio of gene expression in the two tolerant cultivar/the two sensitive cultivar (50% RGI).
