Isoforms are preceded by the abbreviated species name (Hv: Hordeum vulgare; Os: Oryza sativa; So: Saccharum officinarum; Ss: Saccharum spp. and Ta: Triticum aestivum). HT-SuperSAGE libraries: SD24T (bulk of tolerant genotypes under stress; SD24S (bulk of sensitive genotypes under stress); SDTC (control bulk of tolerant genotypes); and SDSC (control bulk of sensitive genotypes). FC: ratio of the frequencies (normalized to 1,000,000) observed in the stressed library in relation to the control library. DR: down-regulated; UR: up-regulated; n.s.: not significant at P < 0.05.
