Categories as presented in Figures 1, 6, and 7 [46].

b

Ranges reported are those of the two natural allopolyploid cotton varieties analyzed in [46].

c

Expressed as a percentage of all genes showing differential expression in the parents, including those with transgressive expression in [46].

d

Expressed as a percentage of all genes showing expression-level dominance.
