  1. 1 Pgl: Picea glauca (White spruce); Pab: Picea abies (Norway spruce).
  2. 2 The source of materials and the sampling method are from the following studies: a, [43]; b, [37]; c, this paper, see methods; d, [23]; e, O-P seedlot, this paper see methods; f, [22]; g, C2856 parent from [38]; h, [44].
  3. 3 Total numbers of genotypes analyzed (either individually or in pools).
  4. 4 Microarray Scanner and Image Processing: SQ, ScanArray Express (Perkin Elmer, Waltham MA, USA) and QuantArray v3.0 (Packard BioChip Technologies, Billerica, MA, USA); PA, PowerScanner (Tecan Group Ltd., Männedorf, Switzerland) and ArrayPro Analyser v6.3 (Media Cybernetics, Bethesda, MD, USA).
  5. 5 Total: number of genes above background (see methods); Unique: genes detected only in one tissue.
