(Reduced analyses omit outlier samples HA89.9, F1.TA.) Mean transcript accumulation (RPKM) per accession (A = H. annuus cmsHA89, H = F1 hybrid, P = H. petiolaris Pet2152) are provided for both full (“full”) and reduced (“red”) analyses. ‘summary annotation’ summarizes the hypothesized gene function based on BLAST-identified similarity. Details of BLAST analyses are provided in Additional file 6: Table S2.
