Pst RNA-Seq samples were obtained from diverse geographic locations, experimental conditions and wheat varieties. a RNA-Seq datasets were generated from Pst-infected plant samples collected from all wheat growing continents, with a large number (642 samples) from Europe and especially the UK (334 samples). The map was created in R version 4.0.2 [35], using packages rnaturalearth version 0.1.0 [36], rnaturalearthdata version 0.1.0 [37] and rgeos version 0.5–5 [38]. b The 939 Pst RNA-Seq datasets from field collected Pst-infected plant samples were collected between 2013 and 2018. c The vast majority (92%) of Pst RNA-Seq datasets were generated from field collected Pst-infected plant samples. d Pst-infected field plant samples were collected from 64 wheat varieties where the variety could be confirmed. Those wheat varieties with at least 3 samples are illustrated. Varieties were confirmed based on their presence in the EU crop variety database [33] or the CIMMYT pedigree database [34]
