a

Motifs expected in the Arabidopsis genome.

b

Motifs observed in PBS-Gs or PBS-Ns.

c

Ratio of Exp. to Obs.

d

P value for motif enrichment (via binomial tests).

e

P value for comparing the distribution of G-boxes with each motif (via two-sample KS tests). P values ≤ 0.01 indicate the motifs whose distribution is significantly different from that of G-boxes.
