Categorization of protein expression in allopolyploid proteomes at each developmental stage. Possible patterns of allopolyploid (AD) expression relative to their diploid parents (A and D) were tabulated for each category. Results based on 2-DE and iTRAQ data sets are presented in pairs. For example, for the developmental stage 20 dpa within G. barbadense (AD₂), 33 and 82 proteins estimated by 2-DE and iTRAQ analyses, respectively, fall into expression category I, which accounts for 2.5% of 1323 2-DE spots and 5.0% of 1652 iTRAQ proteins profiled.
