^aNumbers of ESTs were obtained from dbEST, October 17, 2008.

^bBES, BAC end sequence dataset. Resequencing refers to a project using hybridization-based resequencing to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms in 20 rice accessions.

^cAll rice ESTs are combined and reported as rice rather than separating them into indica and japonica.
